Godspeed brother

I'm from Poland

Dude I still love that that actually wasn't in the script for Iron Man 1

Oh shit, Polandbro

Nice

RDJ had his lines on cards and threw them aside, essentially setting the tone for all future Marvel movies in that the heroes are unapologetically superheroes

I love it

This is how fun parts of military life looks like?

Yeah

But that's like 2% of your life in the military

As a line grunt at least

5% fun 95% work to get to the fun

Well lads, today is MEPS

Im gonna be sitting in a room in my underwear with a bunch of other dudes, and an old man is gonna put his finger up my butthole

enjoy being in purgatory

and remember that you don't have to get forced into whatever MOS they want you in

Gotcha

Choose your rate choose your fate

And he won't finger your butt just stare at it

Lol and have fun with the duck walk

I'm sure I will

Go BUD/S and be a cool guy

Or AWO or AIRR or soemthing

If you are somehow ever offered a Riverine billet then take it

Riverine is lit

Man you guys are making me wish my waiver got approved

I tried to go Marines out of Highschool and got yeeted because of my eyesight, which looking back, a bit of a blessing because I literally was Trombley

But tried again last year for Navy

Wanted to be a Corpsman

Still yeeted

Rip

Your boi found the juice

My favorite ones too

How the fuck i'm supposted to use yeet in the past tense?

I should use yeeted or yote?

@AKAlexei have you already decided on what mos you wanted?

yooted

yoted*

is the past tense

BANG

I think you just use yeet in every tense

Getting too complicated with it

nah it has a past tense its yoted

I'm going to have english exam tomorrow and i'm thinking can i use yeet in it and how to use it?

lol i wouldn't

No

its not a real word its just slang

Hide your power level

Horrible idea

lmao

They will know yur a gamer

I know but sometimes they give use write 100 word on something so i could write about using slang word "yeet"

Gamers rise up

And you use gamer words

"Mom wont let us use the Xbox, GAMERS RISE UP"

"Teacher won't let me say yeet, fortnite that bitch"

we truly are the most oppressed people

Life isn't a joke, the journalist who wrote this is

ayy that's American identity movement

Identity Europa was a way better name

I hate the new one

the new one is dope man you seen the posters

shits aesthetic af

One ASVAB, one Cyber test, and one TAPAS test later, and I'm starving

Rip

Eat a weaker recruit

Really gain some respect

MEPS is like prison rules

Veat up the buffest applicant you can find

Drink from the skull of the weakest applicant

Don't forget to eat the crayons too

I thought he was gping Navy

Not Marine

I don't even know to be honest lol

Lmao

if i had to do it all over again i would have tried out for something higher speed from the start

line infantry is meh

God damn I'm hungry af

just fast

through the hunger

I'm looking forward to chow

you pick your rate yet @AKAlexei

Not yet. Will when I get back to my recruiter station. I got an 82 on the ASVAB

noice

you can do most rates with thta

Whatever you do, don’t go open contract.

Or open rate or whatever they call it in the navy. That’s how you get the big green weenie from the get go

Don't let them talk you into being on a sub either

Fucking asshole beat my last score by one 🖕

Don’t care how much money they’re gonna offer. Don’t. Fucking. Do. It.

Jkjk good job bro

wait you going navy or marines

if so go IT

A school is in oenacola

pensacola

shits lit af

Get you something you can kinda market yourself with when you get out. Being in the military is fun but once you’re out no one really cares about all the heads you canoed in Afghanistan on a resume.

He just wants another gay lover

Dont listen to him

<:BigGayBadge:452594787418243113>

HEY

thats just a plus

that and IT contracts when you get out are good money

@Trash Squid B I G F A C T S

thats what i do shits lit af

Niiiiiiiiiice. I’m working on getting back over to the big show myself with my current job. Just need another year on leash.

Guys. I'm going into the Marine Corps, just saying. Not navy. Open contract? Guys, I'm joining the Marines, I'm not retarded

>implying marines aren’t retarded

word

^^^^

do comms then

>implying that wasn't the joke

you'll get some IT experince

I'm hoping for a PAO position

😂🤣 good shit man. Just stay out of the strip joints at Lejune.

Specifically combat cam

Fuck no I'm not going to strip clubs

That's a terrible idea

just avoid Lejune altogether in fact

So I've been told

And Coronado.

combat cam would be dope af

And 29 Palms

you could hook us up with fresh pics

29 Palms? Did you mean: *Tattooine*?

lmao

whats the difference

^

Sandpeople speak a different dialect at the stumps

lol

More rolling T’s less phlegm

canteen music isn't as good

But way less calls to prayer. 🤷🏻‍♂️ decent trade off

Ree

speaking in marine now?

No u

Slav marine at that

Da tovarisch

Speaking of which, ya know what's fucked up

No, what?

Most other countries take better care of their marines than ours does

Most other country's marines are pussies in comparison to ours

Valid

They dont have weaponized autism

I'm proud of polish GROM those guys are dope

Ya know who's an actual joke? Spetznaz and vdv

really?

Yep

thought the spudz where legit

They look high speed and act it, but they're a joke

At least by our standards

Most of it boils down to their doctrine

oof

Usually its just a fuckton of troops thrown at a wall

Instead of being used properly

that's kind of Russia's thing

You're not wrong, actually a good chunk of the eastern European countries still use mass tactics like back in ww2

oof

no wonder we have to do most of the work in nato

Lul

Last time I checked, america is 15 years ahead of the curve in infantry tactics thanks to all the urban fighting

@AKAlexei go aircrew

it's high speed

ish

how's your swimming

Not bad

look for AWO or AIRR rates

They'll teach you regardless lol

alternatively look at Navy Diver or EOD

air crew is cancer from what i hear

if i were you i'd just do the most badass thing i could physically qual for

Already processing as a Marine tho

Nah aircrew is gay but aircrewman is different

the guys that actually fly on helos have great lives

the guys that maintain helos have shit lives

i'd go combat cam if possible

Go raider or recon then

Maybe this is just me being a soldier but man the marine corps doesn't have much to offer anymore

it's a mess from all angles from what i've seen and heard

You're not wrong

They replace or get rid of a fuckton of jobs as of late

I have a lot of respect for some individual marines but as whole the branch is in deep shit

Their doctrine is outdated to crap

they don't know what they wanna be

and just about the only thing they're good for is having a solid PR machine

See the thing is in the marines "we're better than you and we know it" kinda mentality ruins a lot of it.

I trained with a lot of foreign militaries during my first enlistment and I have got to say that like if it wasn't for the technology difference, the Columbian and Peruvian armies could probably beat the marine corps infantrywise

So marine corps infantry doctrine essentially boils down to "there is a brick wall ahead of us, we are going to keep bashing our heads against the wall until it breaks or falls down, when it eventually does we'll claim that we were successful"

that stubbornness is good in some scenarios but it's what got a hell of a lot of them killed in Iraq

Marines are basically the Slavs of america atm

yeah brute forcing shit doesn't work out so well irl

The army isn't all amazing either but we have our shit together relatively speaking

Honestly if the corps would get it's shit squared away, it wouldn't be so bad.

Their biggest issue is lack of focus branchwise

But with things going the way they are, I doubt they will

I think the Navy is doing the best atm

They don't know what they want to be as a force

Idk man I have friends in the 7th fleet

And they paint a different picture about the navy

I.e undermanned, overworked, shits falling apart, Chiefs are half shitty etc

Turning into the brits

I mean that same complaint can be extended mil wide but you squids got it rough sometimes

Ya we are under manned but it depends on command really

Military in general is in some bad times

Honestly joining in peacetime is kinda stupid unless you do a very technical role

And at that point just go air force and have it easy

Or coast guard and go do something useful

My step brother is a coastie

It's underrated

Doesn’t do shit but fish all day

Everyone shits on it but they're a cool branch

I have only had interactions with him and honestly those are pretty few and far between. But they do some cool drug interdiction stuff.

Lol yeah that's more than you can say for the rest of us

That whole not getting paid during government shutdown is pretty fucked though.

I did some fun stuff in the army but like damn most of it was just waiting around

Saaaaaaame

Yeah that part was shitty

Back in 2014 we had something similar with the shutdown then

When DoD wasn't funded

2011 it happened too

Everything around base was closed for 2 weeks

Nothing happened

I was in Germany and they were like hey no ones getting paid

Yep it's pretty dumb

We were in Graf so it didn’t really make a difference to us at the time

But yeah the constant doing nothing especially once the wars mostly ended is the worst part

Totally agreed. Garrison army shit blows. Deployments are a whole different beast.

It's an SOF world now

I enlisted during war time when there was that mini surge to Afghanistan in 2011

And didn't get to go

I joined in 09 I didn’t get to Afghanistan until 2012

So I just applied for a special task force here and was augmenting JSOC with the 75th ranger bat

Did cool shit in mexico

Went to Chile

Peru

It was a fun time when we got to go

Nice.

But still kinda salty I missed the actual war lol

Eh, 90% of it is boredom
