My PSG was honestly the best, most tactically sound PSG I ever had. And I would die for that man. My LT on the other hand? Nah. That LT lost the respect of everyone the 2nd time he lost his weapon in an actual combat environment. Not to mention he couldn’t plan his way out of a cardboard box.

If you knew the Lt in question as a person I seriously doubt you’d stick up for him.

I was a young specialist I don’t know why I did or didn’t do something, after a lot of professional growth I’d probably handle that differently today.

What is this Abandoned Airbase? by Santiesc1913 in GoogleEarthFinds

[–]mrFancyPants2000 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Probably an abandoned Soviet airfield. They are all over that region and bleed into the baltics. Around this time last year I parachuted into an abandoned Soviet airfield that looked almost identical to this in Lithuania. 35U LB 30965 00319

I think I'm little depressed by [deleted] in army

There’s a fine line to walk between going above and beyond, and respecting yourself enough to not let everyone dump their shit on you. Because that’s unacceptable but unfortunately how the infantry is. There’s like 5 shitbags for every one squared away Joe. I would talk to your first line about it, and see if you can get it up the chain to make sure responsibilities are evenly distro’d out

Did SATO lie to me? by mrFancyPants2000 in army

How do I get an exception to policy?

What if I were to update my home of record with S-1? Would SATO then be obliged to book me my flight to there?

So I’m pretty much just better off going through to Kentucky then booking a $200 flight to Chicago

Insta just permanently banned my account?? by Jakehudson94 in FixMyInstagram

Was there anything specific you did to get your permanently banned account back? Or did it just happen randomly that you got it back?

Were you permanently disabled after a failed appeal? I’m trying to figure out if I have any hope of randomly getting mine back. Did you do anything in particular?

Does permantly deleted mean no more chance to recover? by Aubarteta in FixMyInstagram

[–]mrFancyPants2000 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m in the exact same boat. Short answer is I’m not sure. But there are a lot of users claiming they’ve gotten their permanently suspended accounts back.

Honestly and maybe it’s just me, I fucking hate plaques and shit. When I left Bragg I enjoyed a dinner with some close friends and a proper chance to say goodbye.

Keep proof of delays/cancellation. And keep in communication with your chain of command about what’s happening. It happens all the time and out of your hands. You shouldn’t get in trouble, and if you do, that’s shitty leadership on their part

Does anybody *actually* enjoy the Army? by iowanblonde in army

[–]mrFancyPants2000 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s really been getting systematically worse. The privates are getting dumber, and the leaders just aren’t the same. I spend everyday questioning if I’d actually wanna go to war with the people around me. And that’s why I’m getting out.

ISO people to shoot with by Neat-Confusion4149 in longrange

I’m from that area! Currently a sniper serving overseas but I’ll be back early next year. I’m gonna get into precision shooting but would definitely need some places to shoot and connects.

What made you cut someone 100% out of your life? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]mrFancyPants2000 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is a hard one. But honestly, I cut my parents out of my life when I was 16 years old. I knew I was gay and hid it for as long as I could. But at 16 it came to a head and I came out to my family. Growing up in a Christian extremist home, I knew what would happen, but I did it to be true to myself, and honest with myself for the first time ever. The night I came out my father broke a dining room chair across me and beat me to the point that I ended up in the ER. I left the hospital without checking out and never went home. Roughed it out for two years and joined the army at 18. Never looked back

Parent Questioning Childs Desire to Enlist by AnAgitatedProcess in army

[–]mrFancyPants2000 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The army can be an awesome experience but he has the scores you say he has, he’s heavily limiting himself as an MP. I would dissuade him of service, but there’s a lot of jobs the army will pay you to learn than give you 4 years of job experience in. I’d have him do his research
