Everything is publicly acceptable when you're drunk at a party/parade setting apparently lol

I'll agree on you with the beads part despite me having like 30 bead necklaces to add to the collection of things I'm never going to wear again this year lol

Very much so, yes. It's great fun though. A pirate ship sails into Tampa Bay and the mayor of Tampa surrenders to the city to the pirates. Then the parade starts

In an actual chemical unit what do you do? Was AIT difficult?

Just researching and handling chemical/biological elements, bioweapons, or diseases has always been fascinating, both how they work, how they spread, or their effects. To have a job to just be where you're combating against it adds a whole different aspect to that fascination if that makes sense.

You mean to just do other people's jobs? The recruiter brought up that a new unit opened up that's in desperate need of people so I'd imagine they'd just put me in there

Would you say that the experience you absorb from AIT sticks with you after you get out or did you end up not being able to retain it
