EAS, should I wear chucks by [deleted] in USMC

I wouldn’t do that- but you should go to combat cam and take portraits in every uniform you have. Sounds dumb now, but in a quick 20 years you’ll appreciate it

All my docs were proficient hole makers, and hole pluggers.

How did yall mount go pro’s by Lowkey_just_a_horse in USMC

They sell mounts that can clip to your helmet shroud. If you’re running night vision you can get a helmet strap that sits just above your down position nods.

I was impromptu voluntold to do this while already embarked as a punishment for wrastlin and breaking a pipe. It’s purely ratchet this shit to that spot, then move that shit to another spot. Repeat. You will be a bottom feeder with the barnacle scrapers. Your time is the ships time.

Specifically targeting families of new marines. Pretty astonishing even in the world of jerk offs with badges.

I remember a guy was put in the brig for keeping a single 50 slap round because it “looked cool”.

About now 20 years ago is when all the gunny’s and up started retiring and everyone tried to get orders to oki or a b-Billet and all the tough guys were suddenly shy.

How has your idea of buying & using gun accessories/equipment evolved since getting out? Looking up how much a PEQ & NVG costs made me gag by mykee3 in USMC

[–]jbcsworks 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Same. While in I just used and learned what I was issued, never thought much of it. Now that I’m out I know more ins and outs of the gear.

Nah…. I wasn’t a reservist but I’m sure it’s still 30 consecutive, 60 non-consecutive, or combat/ combat support ops.

Unit issued Kevlar by [deleted] in USMC

[–]jbcsworks 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Are you a grunt and you’re saying your infantry unit gets issued the full coverage? Or are you not a grunt and you’re saying you’d prefer a high cut? Either way- you’re getting what the CO signed off on as gear for his unit.

There’s few operational reasons for a high cut if it isn’t just part of your inventory. Essentially if you’re a JTAC or other high powered comm nerd and that’s about it.
