"we didn't have bradley fighting vehicles in iraq"

Another "as a veteran" post.

I was under the impression these things blew up like tin cans from IEDs.

...but the A3s were in iraq

probably one of those people who never personally saw something, so that means it never happened.

>better
He doesn't know what a parade is. Besides, 2 vehicles being used for a parade means jack shit with how much vehicles the US army has.

Its a performance, think of it from the point of view of a performance.
You put up your best uniform, bring your cleanest weapons, drive the nicest looking and newest vehicles, etc etc. Why? Because its a performance. You wear good looking and clean outfits to a dance, why would you wear dirty and old outfits to a dance? Same logic.
A parade is a performance for the people and more importantly, other nations. Its a show of force in the disguise of a celebration, other nations would laugh at you if you brought dirty and old vehicles to a parade.

>as a veteran
These guys are retarded attention whores who think their opinion is more valid just because they spent a few months in a patrol base in Iraq doing nothing but sit on their asses

Bru, as a navy veteran I can assure you we dropped off dozens of these fucking things.

I saw them there in 06. They just aren’t useful in cities fight insurgents so they weren’t everywhere. This guy is a fucking mouth breather.

Gonna play devils advocado on this and say that he might mean "we" as in his unit, not us forces in general

Once again proof of "I was in the military..." doesn't qualify your statement for jack and shit.
The Bradleys' famously busted lots of old battletanks in Iraq, thanks to their anti-tank missiles. That weird little vehicle packs an insane amount of heat.

Tbf, he was paid to be a retard. Shame is that he uses that for retweets.

>"Boo Hoo my unit was light and thus we didn't get this tanklike POS that breaks down more than a petrol engined Mercedes filled with Diesel, we hadda ride around in HMMWV's."

Ever watched the movie based on its development? Really fucking good, though I'm not sure how accurate it is.

>what do you want me to do, put a sign on it in fifty languages that says "I am not a tank, I'm a troop carrier. please don't shoot at me"

I can image search "bradley iraq" and find tons of evidence they were there, including at least one burned out hull. What an asshole.

There's some accuracy, but I think it actually omits the whole thing about how the Bradley became what it became due to NATO paranoia about the BPM-1.
They envisioned some kind of mini tank which could safely move a small number of troops through some kind of absurd doomsday battlefield fully CBRN contaminated, as well as also fighting through this and being able to fend of basically any other vehicle or whatever poor infantry is actually outside in this hellscape, trying to bust said tank.

Pentagon wars is another in a long line of anti-military industrial hysteria that has become so popular among the less mentally stable since ww2.

OP here. I had a feeling this "as a veteran" poster was a faggot. Thanks all. Happy 4th of July!

Just once I'd like to hear a soldier say "I was in Afghanistan but I never once saw an enemy, I just shot my rifle at a hill 1000yards away because everyone else was doing it, we mostly just fucked off like construction workers all day long."

Pentagon Wars aside, it's perfectly fine to scrutinize the military industrial complex.

DRUMPF

he's just some braindead autismo trying to impress a twitter thot by acting like a big nerd

Even Smedly Butler wrote “war is a racket”

>it's perfectly fine to scrutinize the military industrial complex.

yeah but unless you stick to facts you'll just look like a mouthbreathing retard who has to make shit up to make a point

True, true.
I do love the Bradley, the fucking weird little thing.

FUCK THE TROOPS!

Lmao it’s you. The guy who is super assblasted about a 30 year old move.

“Certain parts of the movie are inaccurate! Therefore the very true flaws of the Bradley program are irrelevant!”

Did your daddy design it or what

The US Military has been a volunteer force for decades, if he didn't want to fight the jew war, he didn't have to join?

A job that he took voluntarily and still gets benefits today

And fuck troop people

Even many combat vets need to stfu before they open their mouths like an expert. Alot of barely eligible IQ grunts get lucky and survive a combat tour or two. Doesn't mean their opinion is bonafide.

Yes, those things were absolute Jack-in-the-boxes with IEDs/ant-tank mines

Oh god, someone using Pentagon Wars as factual documentary

I don't know, there's no Belle Marine trying to peddle her bathwater, is there?

As a non-veteran who was of fighting age at that time, and there was talk of reinstatement of the draft within congress, i can tell you I had no desire to liberate rich oil heirs from their dune coon neighbors for the next three years of my life. I decided I'd better serve my jew occupied country by earning cash, screwing rich city girls, using recreational drugs on the weekends, traveling to nog-free European countries and driving new cars. I served ...me.

You stupid asshole what do you think people seeing APCs are going to half engage them becuase they aren’t tanks?

>Look Sergei, APCs!
>Don’t shoot at them too hard, they aren’t tanks afterall

Jow Forums is so dumb lmao, I only came here to see this post. At the end of the day we actually got some bad ass training and did bad ass things. we proved to the world and humanity we are real men who will sign the blank check. Cowardice will always find a philosophy to justify it. that's what I see here. Look down at your gut. now go to the gym. do something besides sit there on your computer and be a fat ass tard talking shit.

Thank you for your cervix.

You forgot your signature boomer

no

>3 of the same number witnessed
Don’t even waste your typing on these fatties and apartment city dwellers, it’s not worth it

>we proved to the world and humanity we are real men
It was uncertain before? You were weak and still are.

>Ever watched the movie based on its development?

Pentagon Wars is not a documentary of the Bradleys development.

Timothy McVeigh is the only soldier to ever uphold his oath.

based

Sometimes I wish Trump was even half the racist authoritarian that these people are convinced he is.

>The guy who is super assblasted about a 30 year old move
It came in 1998. Learn to count properly before posting in the future. Also, it isn't fans of the bradley that keep bringing it up.
>Certain parts of the movie are inaccurate!
No, almost everything in the movie is inaccurate.
>Therefore the very true flaws of the Bradley program are irrelevant
Why don't you name some, then?

I hope you're some yuropoor; because if you were raised speaking English, you should be ashamed of your reading comprehension.
I didn't imply that it was.

Nice of you to join us Chris

It's not polite to samefag, Chris.

Gay

How the fuck do you faggots not know that there are literally thousands of sock puppet accounts with hundreds of thousands of bot accounts for epic upboats? "As a veteran" is one of their favorite scripts. It doesn't matter their comments are massive lies with no factual backing. Normies eat this shit up to feel better that the troops are on their side. Groups like Shareblue, Media Matters, and even quasi intelligence agencies are CONSTANTLY shitting up /po l/, /k /, (with anti gun threads), Face berg, Twit ter and the few news sites that still allow comments.

How the FUCK do you not know this place has constant Disc ord Tran ny shilling and has had a continuous Brady Gun Ban presence since Sandy Hoax. Are you all just that /nu/ and /cancer/?

It's obvious which accounts are bots if you spend 30 seconds looking at their profile.
It's pretty safe to assume that any sentence starting with "As a x..." is fake and gay.

>As a veteran
congrats you played grab ass in a shower with other men.

Confront reality you stupid Jow Forums nigger

We never had b-2 bombers in germany. 4 years in europe and we never had B-2 bombers and M-4s

Orange man gets that stuff day one ? he bad

Maybe I don't want to confront that very uncomfortable truth and I'd rather kill the fucking yids that I think are controlling the people around me. I'd rather kill the rich parasites leeching off my country and bankrolling anti-freedom bullshit rather than kill Joe Fudd who merely thinks my AR is scary.

stop cherry picking your enemies. they're all enemies

>people getting upset about bustn out the whips to celebrate the fourth and calling it fascist and un patriotic to do it
Why are people so fucking gay?

This, I remember Marine Amtrackers would steal parts from Bradleys for suspension repairs

Does anyone live in an urban shithole? I’m thinking of taking up a job in the Bay Area just so I can talk to these fucking people and find out just what the fuck makes them think like this, we don’t have many of those progressive weirdos in my comfy rural community

Don’t talk to them, shoot them

Damn, I didn't know Trump was President during the war in Iraq. How many terms has he served by now?

You might be a commie if...
>I'd rather kill the rich parasites leeching off my country

Isn't it the same deal as getting offended by the American flag or even the Betsy Ross flag?
These people forget that Obama had these flags around and other Presidents had military parades for their inaugurations but when Trump does it it's the preparation for a dictator.

Brad's hold up pretty well to IEDs with reactive armor, even EFPs are hit or miss. Deep buried will fuck em up but then again deep buried will fuck up anything. I was light infantry but we had Brads attached to us from 1-18 IN. 1st ID. Was always nice having Brad's on patrol with you

what's deep buried? are those the types that can lift abrams into the air?

Its a state I reach with your mom.

So a modern Namer APC?

Like dig up the road, bury a fuckload of HME and repave the road, and wait until a vehicle roll over it. Few instances of Bradley's hitting them, flipping ass up, and basically killing the entire crew/dismounts. Catches fire, ammo cooks off, no way to really get anyone out.
They did pretty well in Baghdad. Just alot slower mounting/dismounting if you're doing HVT type raids

Is it true that enlisted personnel never truly grow as adults even after they leave the military?

While officers move on and become high level management at least or executive level leaders?

What is it that makes enlistedfags stagnate and become the "As a veteran" guy?

I'd rather be in a Bradley during an IED than a HMMWV. The 25mm was also awesome, everything else about the Bradley I fucking hate.

Ours were M2A2 ODS Bradleys.

All of the conditioning and built identity of a warrior culture is instilled at such a young age, that you sort of struggle with an identity crisis when you get out, as those key years after high school into young adulthood, officers spend in school . Granted your generalizing a bit but yah that's my opinion

Hey that's my old unit, what unit were you in?

1-28 IN 1st ID. We were intermingled with A co 1-18

OooopsThat post was meant for you

Ah I was B co, yall 4th brigade cats were somethin else

Don't play those games with me you yid cocksucker. There are multiple billionaires, most of whom are kikes, bankrolling gun control. Many of them are foreigners on top of it. Don't pretend to be so naive.

Still remember the first time the Brad started letting off 25mm I almost shit myself. No idea what was happening, it was our first time ever being around mech. Hell the only training we had on HMMVs was NTC, all our stuff at Riley was dismoinged. Anyway good to see a Vanguard on here have a happy 4th bro

>"As a X..."
It feels like every other comment on the internet starts with this now.

Not all rich people are villains, but not all rich people are Innocent either.
There's people out there with vast wealth who use that wealth to do bad things, like George Soros.

People build their identity around what little they have.

Everytime I see a comment like that i ask what unit what MOS. 9 times out of 10 they refuse to say, because they were all mailroom cunts just playing internet tough guy.

weird that you decided to reply to me and not the guy who posted do you have brain damage?

There is at least one of them in a video somewhere during one of the assaults on Fallujah.

No dude...

I just dont understand why everyone is calling it fascistic or stuff like that. Here in Europe we have some parades here and there, last year we had one about WW1.

They are cool, oh and happy independence day.

>I just dont understand why everyone is calling it fascistic or stuff like that.

the people who say stuff like that also think that the american flag is a hate symbol. you can't take them seriously.

Gotcha, any way for someone outside the US to watch the parade? Did it start already?

Bootlicking the mil is bad senpai.

Strikers are more modern inside, like from this century.

As a veteran I agree.
