As a Marine why do i feel so angry whenever i see a soldier wearing his cammies in public; armed service men are supposed to be humble (Quiet professionals) not attention seeking pricks.
Just went back to my old high school and i saw my former classmates wearing their cammies and im not saying Marines are superior to Soldiers what im trying to inform is that they lack the discipline compared to what marines have
I'm not surprised you didnt think this through. Some times people got shit to do, user. It's easier to go do said shit, not the waste the time changing before so.

Dude every branch has motards. When you stick a kid straight out of high school into the first thing they've done out of life, what else do you expect said immature kid to do, other than wave the banner of their achievement? Yeah, it's pretty fucking stupid but then again 90% of the people enlisted (or commissioned to be honest) are pretty fucking stupid.
Cameron Kelly
I used to feel this way too, here was my moment.
I had just got back from spending 2011 in Afghanistan. My gf at the time and I were traveling Europe and we were in Florence, Italy when we saw another couple on the streets. The guy was wearing multicam pants and the old UCP color fleece because the Army was just beginning to move away from UCP. I was overcome with rage. This guy wasn't supposed to be wearing his uniform while out and about! Then I stopped and actually thought for a second. Why the fuck do I care what this guy is wearing? At worst he's trying to flex which is silly because nobody gives a fuck except people like you or past me who get butthurt about it. More likely than not he's wearing it because it's clean clothes he has available and he's used to wearing it all the time anyway.
Stop giving a fuck dude. Let go.
Colton Nguyen
I have no intent of being rude and i understand what you mean but what i'm trying to infer is that most fresh out of high school kids that tend to enlist in the army that went back for went to leave lack the discipline compared to what marines possess. But then again this type of people exist in any other branch of the United States
Nathaniel Jones
You are actually correct and what you said right now ill keep that in mind
James Parker
the more time passes the more i hate 'soldiers'
Leo Cook
Learn to let that shit go or you're going to be disappointed and angry over fellow soldiers to a ridiculous degree forever.
Maybe think about SOF in the future if you want to reside in the lofty aerie of competence.

I don’t get mad over it, I find it distasteful. Like camo is disgusting as fuck and most of these fucks in the military especially the army and navy don’t need a fucking camo. They need a service uniform with slacks and coat they can wear everyday. I wouldn’t be peeved about it if it didn’t look like shit. You say professional warriors but most of these retards are just desk jockeys with a dependa. Seriously though back to the uniform, make these faggits wear suit and tie and leave the cammies for the real killers, and give the motor and air guys there overalls they actually want.

Grunt here, CIB. I wore my uniform off post all the time since the people who work right off post are all extremely used to it and nobody cares. I would generally be too lazy to go back to the barracks and take my uniform off if I were just going to grab some takeout or something. Granted, I wouldn't put the fucking thing on if I weren't in it, but ease off a bit. Exception was flying, because I'd get free first class pretty much every time.
Owen Cruz
I can't tell you how common it is for Marine boots to show up to their high school/hometown parading themselves around in their dress blues. Hell one of my friends from high school went into NROTC for the Marines, sophomore year he asked me if I wanted to go visit our old teachers and I agreed. Dude pulls up wearing his fucking MARPATs begging me not to tell anyone at our university... Also ask anyone who did time at Kadena/Futenma how disciplined Marines are
Michael Ward
This poor bait will get millions of responses.
Lucas Thompson
I like seeing folks in uniform. Hot guys, girls and everyone else. Makes me proud that such brave people exist. I'm a pacifist and anarchist so getting into the Air Force is unfortunately not possible for me. Seeing soldiers wearing their stuff makes feel safer, even if it's not true.
Colton Lee
Quiet professionals are Army Special Forces. Marines are the gay pride service branch, so that's ahy they always wear cammies in public. Loud and proud!
Marines are generally prohibited from wearing cammies in public.
Ayden Gomez
> i want complete destruction of the system and society as we know it but, like only if nobody gets hurt
Yup, sounds pretty retarded
Aaron Reyes
The marines are a peace keeping force and nothing else these days, the military will never be used in actual hardcore warfare force anymore.
Everyone knows this, which is why you have women on the "battlefield" when they are laughably inferior in almost all the roles they currently fill.
This is also why most western nations think masculinity is toxic now, because warriors are not longer really needed. Best thing that can happen is for all nuclear weapons to cease to function tomorrow, feminist bullshit would end the day after.

>armed service men are supposed to be humble (Quiet professionals) not attention seeking pricks. that's real funny coming from a MUHREEN.
I've been out for 9 years, and I have yet to meet more muhreens than I can count with one hand that was not completely obnoxious, loud, and an overall dickhead.
>How do you know if he's a Marine >Don't worry, he'll tell you!
>More likely than not he's wearing it because it's clean clothes he has available and he's used to wearing it all the time anyway.
This. Also if you encounter people who do a lot of camping, hunting, hillwalking or other general outdoorsy stuff there is a good chance some of their clothing and equipment will be military surplus, because it's (usually) practical, robust and effective. It's not always motards or stolen valor.
>meet annoying Marine, let's call him LCpl Dipshit >his instagram is all oorah shit about him being in the Marines and meeting various high-ranking individuals >ascertain that he did 4 years and got out >google his name + "usmc" >find news post from when he got photographed doing some ceremonial shit in DC >"LCpl Dipshit, administrative clerk, prepares for the event" Every goddamn time lads
>milsurp for /out/ activities I also do this. It's comfy, it's sturdy, and it works. Also the modularity is nice. That German load-bearing gear is just about right to haul my rod, tackle, snacks, drinks and a camp stove.

He's an MP.
Well being a Marine I'm sure you've been off base to buy things or shit sometimes your just doing things during the day or getting off duty bc your a recruiter or some shit and are just wanting to do a few things in public before heading home. Unless you actually ask someone why they're wearing their uniform in public your not going to know and it's pretty dumb to assume they're just doing it to show off when theres a million reasons they could be doing it.

Don’t worry about it. Army has different regulations. At least you get to wear your dress uniform more often. Inconvenient work hours contribute as well.
Liam Harris
The Marines' ban on wearing battle dress in public is nothing more or less than an attempt to differentiate itself from the Army via petty regulation. It works on motarded boots, as you have discovered, so some respect is due.
I think it's stupid because it's ultimately based on a reactionary obsession with close-order drill, which is about like making soldiers form shield walls or throw javelins.

who gives a fuck you boot ass motard. let ppl wear what they want. my adidas sweatpants or my ahegao hoodie ain’t authorized. I still wear it anyways

Awwww little peacetime baby is mad someone is taking his attention lmao go fuck yourself clown
Never had to deal with this problem. In my country its a crime to wear military apparel if you are not in the military. You can only wear milsurp if that type of article is officially out of service.
Its fucking great.
Wyatt Bennett
Let's be honest, wearing your cammies off base/off duty is for attention whores.
Luis Cooper
Every civilian wants to be one of the few, the proud. The ones who made it through challenges that would break even the best trained of civvies. The respect, the women, the lucrative career prospects after 0311/11B.
Aaron Flores
>The icing on the cake? >He's an MP.
Oh man, don't be mad because you aren't trained to take out professional soldiers when they misbehave. MPs are like SWAT on steroids.
One time we were at base and a bunch of SEALs went AWOL again and chocked a few green berets and a PJ that saw them selling weapons to hajis and then the fucking MPs went in. Was the baddest motherfucking thing I ever saw.
They ran diagnostics on the building, popped a bunch of 50 cal through the wall (they estimated the probabilities of SEAL locations and got them right). Then they went in full speed. The SEALs started panicking and throwing grenades everywhere, like they were about to frag Linda Nosgrove again but the MPS were just too fucking fast them. Got in the room while the frags went off in the location they were previously in, popped all the SEALs. The SEALs had some Secret Service visitors, so obviously they had some escorts they paid for.
Fucking escorts immediately started begging to let them suck off the MPs.

Hes a marine. Hes incapable of critical thinking. Or having sex with a woman under 300 lbs.
Mate, you're behaving like a fucking diabetic. If you're having an emotional frothy about some fucking fabric, contact with the enemy is going to leave you a fucking debilitated PTSD riddled wreck.
You're a semi-skilled worker who's job it is to fucking shoot people. Act like it, soft cunt.
Eli Cruz
My favorite part is when I wear one of my Army hoodies (I got a handful as gifts from various family) cuz it’s cool out and I’m not dressing to impress, and I have friends that give me shit for it.
But they’re the same people that have “military style backpacks”, wear the tacticool shades with civvies in public, and wear either 5.11 pants or poorly fitting jeans.
(We’re all mil btw)
Ayden Evans
lol there was a marine who beat up an airman cos he thought he was stolen valor and a vetnam vet was also beaten up by some marines cos they thought he was stolen valor due to his old uniform
