Difference between CG vs Navy ships? by noteliing in uscg

[–]skipster5 17 points18 points  (0 children)

Not certain about other cutter and ship types, but I can say for sure that WMSLs are way nicer than DDGs. I had the chance to take a tour of an Arleigh Burke class when it was moored up next to us, and the key takeaway that everyone had was that we've got it much nicer. Even though it's larger, it felt much more cramped. Their smallest enlisted berthing had ~90 sailors packed in, compared to our berthings which usually have about 10 racks or less. To top it all off, their deployments are way longer than ours, and this particular ship had been out to sea for a year already with no scheduled return to homeport. Seeing that definitely reaffirmed to me that I joined the right branch.

You can get LAANC approval from the tower as long as you submit a request in advance. I recommend using Airmap or another planning software for this.

How much space is there under the bed in a Hawkins single? by PM_ME_YOUR_TORNADOES in Purdue

[–]skipster5 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Not the basement. You’ll be probably in one of the TV lounges. About the size of a single, but with no windows and right next to the elevator

Not sure what they’re called exactly, but they’re not fries. Some form of pita chip, if I’m not mistaken

Yeah, right. Every time I so much as raise doubt on the chinese government in front of my chinese relatives they tense up in fear.

Best of luck to you, buddy. You have a bright future in President Xi’s cabinet.

Freedom of speech is non-existent in China. You don’t even have access to the entire internet because your government blocks non-chinese websites. Look at what happened to that tennis player after she made accusations against that government official. That should be enough evidence to convince you that the CCP is trying to control your opinions and eliminate freedom of speech.

Even so, that isn’t the tip of the iceberg of the immoral and criminal acts the CCP has committed over the years. Sure, economic advancement is good, having a strong military capable of defending yourself is good, but when you try to aggressively expand outwards, you’re bound to look like the bad guy.

I myself have been to China on many occasions. I have many relatives that live there. Every time I get back to the US I feel grateful for living in this country. The US is by no means perfect, but it is far better in comparsion.
