I read a book by merc recently, about how approach of western armies is inherently flawed from the lowest level in modern conflict. Where they need explosive power they focus on endurance and so on. The book was written in late 80s but its still applicable to Lith forces, and from what Ive seen, same with burger ones
its peak cringe to be trained with what amounts to constant logistic support in mind even when larping some sort of supply issue, and still getting meal 3 times a day xD
^
why do people even larp about that
@Parabellum Yeah I know I have been trying my hardest so far
I cant do much yet but its getting better every day
I went from 20m in the second day to 50m today
@Parabellum Im probably joining as an officer
Since Im joining after university, and here once you have a degree yoi just complete the basic academy training and you become an officer
Nobody likes "vitamins" mate
Vitamins? @Parabellum
Guys who get commision without attending the full academy course
In burgeria its ROTC but iirc ROTC was more decent than most countries courses for this
Oh ok
Always when you say burgeria I see Bulgaria lol
Tl;dr neither your troops nor your superiors respect you, so good luck foing your job xD
lol
I want to be in artillery
Why
I’ve always had a fascination with it
I can always change what I want though
If thats your thing go for it
Tho if you want to draw some useful experience for whatever from it post service, I dunno what is there really as an arty man
@Parabellum I have to do the academy course
I mentioned that above
4 years?
I think its 3 here
People here do it along with uni so Im guessing its 3 years
so you would actually attend military academy?
after uni already?
I guess thats how it works
I know you can do it at the same time but I also know you can skip the academy
Or I can also just join as a soldier
Either that or a tanker
if you skip academy your underlings and superiors will look down on you
I also dont see why youd want to be either artillerist or tanker as I said before. Not exactly career with a lot of transferable skills
I dont think you can skip the academy you can just skip smoe parts of the academy
infantry is cool
Like the ones that dont relate to the military
I'm probably gonna go for standard infantry or mechanized.
