Get in there and shake up the nor.

I had Marine mentors during Balikatan

*norm

We didn’t have any suits which helped

The main issues were language and different outlook I guess?

We typically had one guy translating for a whole platoon at times, so you had guys barking orders and the dudes getting screamed at didn’t understand what they were being told to do

sounds like a party

Be glad you never had to work with ASIS.

I hope this fall also scares Breyer into retiring.

Basically lawyers with guns.

Are they that bad?

Fucking useless

Lol

lmao

_Welp_

Babysitting kids straight out of uni that don't even know where the bullets come out of their gun.

Telling you how to gather Intel.

Oh mate don’t even remind me

This is the problem with us yeah

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
