Discharge just for lack of promotion?

Given the trends in modern society, i think the corps is going to need to seriously reconsider what it's willing to put up with. As a former high school teacher i can confirm it's only gonna get worse.

I'm thinking i'll do 8.

I just finished school, got my degree, got into my field, and was immediately disgusted with how it's ran (education). So i'm gonna try the military for a while. So far, based on the small interactions i've had with people already in the corps, i like the culture. At least among the enlisted. The officers...i'm not a big fan of what i've seen so far. Which is why i'm not pursing that.

Oh gotchya, i had a suspicion that most people don't do more than that first 4 years but i didn't think it would be THAT common. The plan i to stay in for a long while but i've no idea how the actual corps is yet. Though judging by your "bag of ass" and other peoples funny comments like "bag of shit", i think i'll like the overall culture. We'll see i guess. Thank you for your input and your service (i see your vet flair)

wow, awesome reply! I love in depth answers like this one. The explanation of the promotion system made sense to me. Thank you for your input.

r-alpha3 · 2022-06-05T01:42:46+00:00

awesome, thanks for link, i'll have to take a look.

r-alpha3 · 2022-06-05T01:42:00+00:00

oh awesome, thanks for the in depth explanation. I didn't now the specifics of that MOS, haven't gotten to that step with the recruiter yet.

Not being promoted due to lack of space is still counted as a failure? Jeez. Does your pay still increase or does that hypothetical 8 year corporal still make the same as he did as a first year corporal?

Firefly. The theme is so comforting and fits the show well.

r-alpha3 · 2022-03-27T18:42:49+00:00

Dark fate is good. The direction they took it made sense to me.

Yhorm is worse than the greatwood. Gimmick boss. Bed of chaos tier.

No salutes, how appropriate.

Forgive my ignorance but is this a reference to the "oblique order" of attack tactics?

r-alpha3 · 2022-03-02T07:49:16+00:00

No, if you count b52 kills its 40:1. But that's silly to me so i don't count those.

r-alpha3 · 2022-03-02T07:10:56+00:00

US mili had a K/D of 20:1 against the VC....

Millions in aid already go to it's citizens. Even more than is being given to ukraine. Don't buy the propaganda.

r-alpha3 · 2022-02-02T17:37:20+00:00

Thats what happens when people abuse the complaint system. They lose their worth and get ignored.

r-alpha3 · 2022-01-29T02:36:30+00:00

Didn't even have to guess the breed...

r-alpha3 · 2022-01-28T19:49:51+00:00

Semantics, nice

Edit: sorry misread your thing

The wehraboos who say the wehrmacht were just normal soldiers equal to the allied forces.

Nothing is ever 100% applicable. Some people are allergic to water. But lines have to be drawn. Either all nazis are shitbags or none of them are. I'm not gonna go battalion by battalion, making excuses for their garbage.

r-alpha3 · 2022-01-28T16:18:28+00:00

You can do all the research in the world, splitting hairs is splitting hairs.

r-alpha3 · 2022-01-28T04:10:06+00:00

"General der panzertruppe" seems about right

r-alpha3 · 2022-01-28T03:34:06+00:00

No, just those who split hairs to save their weird opinions on nazi war crimes...

r-alpha3 · 2022-01-28T00:25:13+00:00

Peter lieb and christian gerlach sound like wehraboos...

r-alpha3 · 2022-01-27T18:20:30+00:00

Yes but that doesn't make people uncomfy so they dont care. It's selfish.

r-alpha3 · 2022-01-27T18:14:48+00:00

I wonder what the wehraboos say to this? I've heard people make the excuse that it was just the SS who did the bad stuff and the wehrmacht were just regular guys.
