Our military academy is essentially the same as the police academy, a preserve of rich kids

So the 2LT’s usually are fresh faced babies

did everyone stay in shape? or run only for the yearly exam?

And to give them combat experience, they get slapped on to platoons

PT is pretty intense for frontline in Oz

Support units eat donuts all day.

You basically don’t get promoted past 2LT unless you’ve been in the shit for at least six months

So you have all these cunts who’ve been in the shit two, three years

ah, when I had to drop out from the pool I could do 15 pullups

With some kid younger than them telling them what to do

yeah sounds like uni brats alright

That was uhhh

An experience

I had to keep a 2lt alive attached to my pl on my second rotation. Left him in the wire to "coordinate fob defense and triage casualties "

Our first one died mate

Got one right through the head after a gigantic fuck up

2lts are fucking IED magnets.

I don't know why.

Fate or something.

They’re sniper fodder here

Guess it’s the jungle

Maybe it’s the title

2LT

2-lite

Get recognised as bright fucking snowflakes

I realize that is a terrible pun

First rotation the 2lt got popped while doing hearts and minds so when he got replaced we put him in the oldest cams we could find and kept him dirty.

Oh God

Made him look as unimportant as possible.

You know what my biggest complaint is on though?

Fucking logistics

oof, getting purple hearts here is an embarassment. means the enemy qualified on you

Mate don't even get me fucking started.

Cunts can never bring enough and yet we still get blamed

So I have two good ones for ya before I go to sleep haha

Logistics is why America wins

One is we had an arty unit attached to us for a bit

Logi couldn’t give them their shit on time so they had to procure their own fucking rounds

Being under usa command was always the best. You knew you'd never run out of bullets.

Turns out some of the shit they got were goddamn _flechette rounds_

Hahaha
