My step brother is a coastie

2019-05-08 01:29:10 UTC  

It's underrated

2019-05-08 01:29:12 UTC  

Doesn’t do shit but fish all day

2019-05-08 01:29:17 UTC  

Everyone shits on it but they're a cool branch

2019-05-08 01:30:07 UTC  

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

2019-05-08 01:30:32 UTC  

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

2019-05-08 01:30:34 UTC  

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

2019-05-08 01:30:48 UTC  

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

2019-05-08 01:30:54 UTC  

Saaaaaaame

2019-05-08 01:30:56 UTC  

Yeah that part was shitty

2019-05-08 01:31:09 UTC  

Back in 2014 we had something similar with the shutdown then

2019-05-08 01:31:14 UTC  

When DoD wasn't funded

2019-05-08 01:31:20 UTC  

2011 it happened too

2019-05-08 01:31:25 UTC  

Everything around base was closed for 2 weeks

2019-05-08 01:31:33 UTC  

Nothing happened

2019-05-08 01:31:35 UTC  

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

2019-05-08 01:31:47 UTC  

Yep it's pretty dumb

2019-05-08 01:32:06 UTC  

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

2019-05-08 01:32:09 UTC  

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

2019-05-08 01:32:38 UTC  

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

2019-05-08 01:32:39 UTC  

It's an SOF world now

2019-05-08 01:33:03 UTC  

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

2019-05-08 01:33:07 UTC  

And didn't get to go

2019-05-08 01:33:24 UTC  

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

2019-05-08 01:33:28 UTC  

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

2019-05-08 01:33:34 UTC  

Did cool shit in mexico

2019-05-08 01:33:51 UTC  

Went to Chile

2019-05-08 01:34:01 UTC  

Peru

2019-05-08 01:34:10 UTC  

It was a fun time when we got to go

2019-05-08 01:34:17 UTC  

Nice.

2019-05-08 01:34:24 UTC  

But still kinda salty I missed the actual war lol

2019-05-08 01:34:44 UTC  

Eh, 90% of it is boredom

2019-05-08 01:34:53 UTC  

I just want that CIB

2019-05-08 01:34:56 UTC  

It’s the 10% of pure terror that’s the fun part

2019-05-08 01:35:17 UTC  

My work had me becoming a MOUT expert

2019-05-08 01:35:20 UTC  

Ahhhh 11B 😂🤣

2019-05-08 01:35:26 UTC  

It's my bread and butter

2019-05-08 01:35:37 UTC  

Did constant raids and glass houses every day

2019-05-08 01:35:38 UTC  

Shoulda tried to slide into a SOFARTEC slot

2019-05-08 01:36:03 UTC  

Yeah I put in a packet for SFAS but then was too hungover to remember to submit some other forms they wanted

2019-05-08 01:36:08 UTC  

I just hunted bombs and sometimes shot at people 🤷🏻‍♂️
