Yeah no it’s about time too

Eh. I’ve been to the big show. Don’t worry about the political reasons. Just worry about your guys

When you’re in the military you are a national asset. It should be completely devoid of politics. Violence is your trade. Doesn’t matter who you have to visit that violence upon

I don’t feel like Iraq pt 2 was about oil. I feel like GWB just wanted to put Saddam in his place for his dad.

Venezuela wouldn’t be about oil. When you run over your own people with MRAPs because they’re rioting over the conditions you caused for them, it’s time to go

I’m not saying America should be the world police, but there’s a reason so many people come to our country

As shitty as we think it is, there’s a kid out there that hasn’t eaten in days, with no clean water, wondering if his parents are gonna get yeeted in the middle of the night.

You read any @AKAlexei

If you haven’t read Tribe by Sebastian Junger or On Killing by Col. Grossman pick them up

Nice. Most of my shit went missing when my ex said she wanted a divorce lol. I used to have a good collection like that.

I used to do that when I was younger. If I had a paperback I had read a few times I’d leave them in restaurants and shit for other people to pick up

Lol that’s a libertarian viewpoint

Lmao yeah I understand that

I’m a

I’m a Constitutionalist if you had to put a label on me.

But! Capitalism and Corporatism are completely different

Yuuuuup

I can get behind that. One of the best books ever written

I feel slighted by life. Born too early for cap troopers to be a thing. And I have to deal with anti vaxxers

Oh boy. You’re gonna love the marine Corp

I like to view them as separate entities

I love the movie for the movie. I love the book for a fuck load of reasons

Heinlein is one of my favorite writers. He actually introduced me to libertarianism with The Moon is a Harsh Mistress or There’s No Such Thing As a Free Lunch.

Well yeah. Eventually the world will be one big country in like 300ish years.

The Empire still did nothing wrong. Fucking space ISIS out here plotting terrorist attacks in the name of a hokey religion.

Totally

Same on most issues

Yep.

No shit Sherlock

The NFA only came about because The Black Panthers we’re out here with MGs and shit

#fortheeverlastinggloryoftheinfantry

Same thing @AKAlexei

This is true @Trash Squid

The best concept of the book for me was the “you have to serve to have a say” facet

Nah nah Neuromancer is the ultimate libertarian future.

Dr. Strangelove is based satire

Truth

You can if you have term limits

And no career politicians

Also true

For legal purposes this is a joke

Yeah. Like they get all these perks and shit

And I want all lobbying to fucking end

Don’t care

That’s on them

Boom. Barracks. Yes.

I want AOC on a fucking police call around the dem barracks

And Bernie better be sweeping out the halls with Ted Cruz

This is the best idea ever

@Trash Squid I had a joe sweep rain before

Lol

Nice!

MOS?

Ahhh yeaaaaah

Army

11B is 0311

My little brother is an 11B in the 82nd

Night man

Lol I’m from right outside of the backside of Bragg.

No shit. Southern Pines.

Yeah fuck fayettenam

Vice is shit tier news

I just finished it.

Fuck Paul Ryan

@Trash Squid it doesn’t matter who wins that one. All my Rhodie bois are gonna rain hell whenever Brushstroke is up for a vote

Much of where RBS was fielded was grassland.

Well considering the USMC was going to go to RBS before MARPAT came into existence...

Like the only reason they’re not rocking RBS is because they developed MARPAT

The ninja shit? Not terrible. But not great for daylight

Back when they were testing skateboards as a legit combat maneuver enhancement 😂🤣

Ahhh. Not the ninja shit

Hey man I literally have nothing better to do lol

And it’s fun to talk to the young guys that are about to go in

Don’t even worry about Venezuela. If you go it will be after any sort of initial invasion has already gone down

Then join the Peace Corps or a Civil Affairs unit. War is not pretty man. After PI you still have like 5 more months of schooling to do. You have to go to ITB and then your actual MOS school. And then you have to go to your unit, get in-processed, and there’s like a solid 3 more months of training and shit before you even set foot on a plane or boat to go to a war zone. War is war, and taking human life is something not a lot of people can do. If you pick up On Killing it goes into all of that. I was your age once and idealistic. Then I saw combat and had to put rounds into people. It will change you if you’re not ready for it. The best thing for you though is to be prepared mentally. Leave politics to the politicians. Your only purpose when you’re in is to either shoot things or support the guys doing the shooting.

Civil Affairs is part of USASOC and a pretty easy pipeline too. Peace Corps is garbage imo

Later man! Beat cheeks!

Good job!

Like Polska or US?

Ok. You know you can come over here and join and it will speed up your citizenship stuff, right?

Ahhhh ok I think I see what you’re saying

Working for your military but not being in the military

Got it

Well, a job is a job. And anything that keeps you from sleeping on the streets is a win

The US Army has an entire IT job field. After basic training you go to beautiful Fort Gordon, Georgia and learn about computers and IT systems

I had a bunch of 25 series friends. They got out and used all the certificates they got while in to get nice cushy jobs on the outside

Lol it’s a good strategy. Looking back I should have chosen a soft skill MOS. Finding bombs was fun but I was on the struggle bus for awhile when I got out.

Lol for three years it didn’t. Then I lucked into what I do now. I handle an explosives detection dog and the money is pretty good. They saw “spent 6 years looking for IEDs and shit” and called me the day after I submitted my resume

I’ve been there.

It’s ok to give up for a little bit. Take a breather and figure shit out. It’s entirely different to stay in the self pity party.

But you realized it. Some people never do and just wind up becoming shells of themselves

lol

My endgame is to go back overseas for a PMC

K9 guys make some serious cash. Like SOC is paying K9 handlers 300+ bucks a day

Yeah there’s a bunch of hoops and shit to jump through

It’s only gay if balls touch.

Eh. That implies Eiffel towering a chick is gay

Also, there’s no stronger flex then jerking off in your CHU and your team leader walking in and holding eye contact with them as you finish up.
