PTSD?
I still held down a job and made academic honors in school
Yeah, and some other stuff
The military is still the worlds leading producer of functioning alcoholics
But yeah, I felt guilty so I just paid off the debt.
Haha, yup
Been sober for nearly four years now.
I don't miss it
Good for you
Thanks :D
I come from a long line of criminals and addicts.
Dont we all?
It seems that way sometimes, especially once one can spot the disfunction. I meet alcoholics all the time, who haven't even realized yet that the hook is set. C'est la vie.
What did you do in the God-emperor's army?
I was communications
Comms guy huh
When I joined, the mos designation was 31u, but was changed to 25u after a couple years in
Yeah
I liked the work
I worked in Operations. To be specific I worked in CIC.
How long were you in?
Tactical Operation Coordinator? I dont speak Army
9 years, 3 months
Nah, it's basically just a command room, really. It might be different by the division, but it's where command for our flight operations was located.
Signal, intelligence and flight ops
Fairly similar.
CIC is the brain of the ship. We track contacts, assist (ie; do the navigators work for them) in navigation, plan engagement of hostile contacts and other things besides.
When there is nothing going on it's boring as fuck, when shits happening - your the eye of the storm
Comms is a big thing too
Yeah, sounds about right. Lot's of waiting, and then bursts of activity. I stayed pretty busy, mostly, but we had a fews day where things were pretty slow. My year in Iraq flew by, as did my three in Okinawa. I loved it over there, but fucking hated my unit. Most of them had never deployed, and it seemed more like glorified boy scouts. I turned the recruitment officer down and went on my merry
I'm about to pick up a van, convert the interior and live out of that while I save money. There's lots of cheap land down south and in the midwest. And some counties don't have building codes, so I won't have to worry about some governmental busybody telling me what I can and can't build.
Sounds good
I, as a right proppa Ork, will kill all those gitz callin themselves orcs in Skyrim
What is CIC? Command in Conquest?
Sup.
I just watched Replicas.
It was mediocre. Don't pay much for it.
However, if the tech ever becomes real, I want it.
is that the movie with keanu reeves
Yep.
