Yes
Amazing
gotem
So it's for stories in general
Anyways let me get started on talking about Nagarno
I was 18 when I got pressed into the military
Mandatory 2 year service since I never persued higher education
This was when the war first started
Back in 88,
And they were some of my best memories to be honest
I never cared much for Patriotism or the Military, but I did it anyways
It was my Duty to my people, not to my state
I hated the fighting, I got shot in ‘89
Bullet tore through my Calf
But it was the moments in between
Comrades, Battle Brothers
Whatever you wish to call them
6 years were the best days of my life
Cause of the moments outside of the fighting
I wouldn’t say I was a good soldier, but by the end of it I was a Sergeant
Tensions were and still are high
But I left my home country in 95
Ended up working for Blackwater until Ukraine
After that I signed off, and got picked up by G4S
Still working with them, for now
I almost went home when there was a clash in 2016
But it never escalated enough for me to
Anyways that’s all, I might go into more detail another time
Until then somebody else can do storytime
My father told me this story when I was recently at his house.
"I was in Kuwait 24 hours after the Iraq thought they were tough. We were walking through a bazzar on patrol and the guys thought it would be a good idea to buy some head scarfs in case we are over run we can put them on and run and click our tongues towards our lines."
Never happened though I still have it at my apartment for safe keeping
Another story is from Desert Storm
Some background first his been on a foot patrol for about 72 hours and was on the way back to base near Kuwait City.
He was driving his Humvee and pulled off the side of the road to take a nap he was just about to fall asleep when all of the sudden *Woooosh Wooosh*
MLRS about 10 of them let loose a barrage about 20 feet away he jumped out of the Humvee into a ditch his Captain walks up " Sgt. Callahan what are you doing down there?!"
I thought that was incoming sir
"NO Callahan that outgoing get your ass back in the Humvee"
Buddy and I were on the line, we randomly heard what we assumed was a jet at first. So we dove into the trench thinking that we were about to get smoked, about 30 or 45 minutes passby and we notice a drone over heard scouting us out. So we started taking a few pot shots and then a few of us climbed out and mooned the drone.
So long story short, someone has a picture of my ass.
XD
So no shit there I was surrounded by ninjas
