This shit just killed me

Was posted on another page

fucking beautiful

Anybody give that video a watch yet? I'm really interested in hearing people's thoughts

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

I mean, I feel like that's an unfair comparison. Brushstroke is for African jungle warfare. Tri-color desert and Chocolate chip were for desert warfare

Much of where RBS was fielded was grassland.

Correction on my part; grassland. Now if we were gonna compare Brushstroke to say Marpat? Now THAT'S a debate

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

That is true

Gods I wish they would've

And I'm sorry, but that urban T camo they tested in the late 90s? tight af

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

Shit probably didn't work

But it was cool as hell

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

Nah Idk if it was ninja shit

It was a camo that they tested in the late 90s around when Operation Urban Warrior or whatever the fuck it was called was going down

Hold on, lemme find a pic

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

YES!

This shit right here

Ahhh. Not the ninja shit

Yeah nah, The urban combat shit was lit

Probably not very effective, but still interesting

The combat skateboard unit omfg that shit was hilarious

That was basically the US Marines saying "Hey... maybe we should try that Xander Cage xXx shit"?

Completely fucking retarded idea... or was it 😉

I appreciate you guys talking to me btw

Not gonna lie, hearing about the Venezuelan shit was a little concerning

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

While I try to take comfort in that idea, who knows. It all depends on the timing of things. Assuming we invade, maybe it happens next month, or next week. But if it happens after I graduate Parris Island, then who knows man. Personally, I'm not worried about the fighting. Their military is a joke, and the worst that I'll be worried about is the Bolivarian Revolutionary militia. They're shit tier wannabes, but in my experience, shit tier wannabes are the crazier ones. Even then, what really concerns me is just the overall loss of civilian life. War is messy. It's a dirty fucking job and shit happens. If I have to fight, so be it, and may the Gods bless me in battle. But in all honesty, I would be much happier if I could just go down their and hand out food and water to people that need it.

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.

Combat is no issue for me. I just wanna help people is all. And those organizations don't pay for college last time I checked

I'll be alright

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