Ah, a retard, I see.

how fit are you after boot and how much/what was your workout before you shipped?

Army guy again, I have a few more questions.
Were there women in your guys' boot camp?
What was the funniest or most notable thing that happened there?
Did you guys do ruck marches and if so, how long were they?

bump, thinking about joining military

not op but im still in, a little over a year left on contract
marine corps is currently conducting a test of recruit training integrating a female platoon into training with an all male company. the results will conclude that women are useless. only time training gets integrated is MCT and any follow on schools/training.
funniest thing in boot camp was watching an 18 year old kid shit his pants in his sleep
plenty of ruck marches in boot camp in phase two and the crucible, three in MCT, plenty if youre a grunt in SOI and follow on. I haven't done a hump in three and a half years because pog life

don't do it for the wrong reasons. 90% of people hate it

What do you consider the wrong reasons?

What's up you boot pog fuck

Hey you're probably a pog too you un-03 bastard

too late. recon isnt doing anything anymore. if you wanted to be HIGH SPEED you shouldve gone sf or seal.

at least maybe your meu might see some action if there's a flashpoint. and you'll get to do cool training. but all the modern missions arent going to recon, they're going to marsoc and even they aren't getting the high speed ones

depends on the person. what reasons are you thinking of joining?

Sorry should have clarified I'm not that guy I'm already in I was just wondering what a bad reason would be.

well, there's a myriad of reasons people join. i think i joined for the wrong reason, which was to get back at my parents for still trying to control my life, so i joined without telling them to prove a point that they'd couldn't stop me from doing that, and boy do i wish i hadn't. but i also don't know where the fuck my life was headed had i not joined. I was working an okay job, full time and a managerial position at age 20. i was going to leave on good terms but ended up getting fired before i was supposed to quit. im about four years in and only just now deciding to use my TA. so i feel like i've pretty much wasted my entire enlistment for literally nothing. the only thing that will look good on a resume after i get out was that i was in the military. any amount of responsibility and my mos will mean jack shit to any employer, so really i feel it was a complete waste of my life and time, and still continues to be. i'm depressed most of the time, anyways.

18:02, was pretty close to ironman

Need to be accelerated into life, need the money, need the opportunity. I'm getting closer to 30, need to get out of this hell.

I was thinking of joining the navy or airforce rather than the army. There's more positions that are applicable to civilian life.

I mean you still have the GI Bill going for you so at least you're going to have that. What mos are you?

it's even worse when you join at an older age. because then you'll have 20 year old "corporals" who will actually try to big dick you, and the funny thing is, unfortunately, you have to actually do what they say, so says the UCMJ. or seeing sergeants who don't even have a service stripe and think they know everything under the sun. it's fucking hellish. at least in the marine corps. my best suggestion is even if you do join, do not join the marine corps.
do not join the navy if you do not like oceans or the idea of being stuck in a giant tin can for months on end in disgusting close-quarters living with people you likely cannot stand, eating food that even prisoners would be pissed of to eat. fuck i only did 4 months on a boat and i got into multiple fights with my best friends.
air force i have no idea about but you have to be decently smart to get in.

are you a g-grunt? uwu

Idgaf about some bratty kids acting douchey to me. Like that's any worse than working retail at 30 lol.

I don't mind being stuck in a tin can, sounds like how I live right now. Airforce would be preferable probably. They have positions for idiots too, one I saw was for pest control. Literally killing rats and insects.

I did 6 years in the Navy, came out an E-6. Ask me whatever.

What was the laziest position, and how much time did you spend at sea?

this is an actual MOS in the army. "SHOWER/LAUNDRY AND CLOTHING REPAIR SPECIALIST (92S)"
OVERVIEW
Shower/laundry and clothing repair specialists are primarily responsible for supervising and performing laundry, shower, personnel and clothing decontamination functions.

JOB DUTIES
Receive bulk, individual, or organizational laundry
Operate mobile laundry system, shower units, light duty sewing machines and associated equipment
Alter sizes, and repair uniforms and zippers
Operate and maintain sewing, darning and button machines
REQUIREMENTS
Those who want to serve must first take the Armed Services Vocational Aptitude Battery, a series of tests that helps you better understand your strengths and identify which Army jobs are best for you.

TRAINING
Job training for a Shower/laundry and clothing repair specialist requires 10 weeks of Basic Combat Training and eight weeks of Advanced Individual Training. Part of this time is spent in the classroom and part in the field with on-the-job instructions.

whew, lad

I spent my first two years on shore doing training, and then four years at sea. Once I was assigned to a ship, I was out to sea approximately 75% of the time. The longest in port we had was during a PIA (repair period) and it was a very strict duty schedule, so very little time off.

The laziest job in the navy is probably... master at arms? Or hotel services, the people that do laundry for officers and shit. But you don't want those jobs.

the laziest job that isn't horrible then hahaha

stop thinking you're special, boot.

well im a mechanic in the airwing, and my job allows me to be lazy in some aspects, but fuck is working on aircraft exhausting. but there are some jobs in the wing that allow you to be pretty lazy that aren't horrible. flight equipment. depends on which platform you get, but you deal with, well, flight equipment. helmets, oxygen masks, oxygen bottles, as well as aircraft explosives, (emergency window blow out explosives). and then if your shop deems you too retarded to stay in your shop, you'll be sent out to tool room or hazmat. hazmat is actually pretty dope to have after you get out, because a lot of online courses or actual classes will allow you to be a certified hazmat handler. get your CDL, a hazmat cert, and you can make decent money driving around dangerous shit. i'm halfway done with my online classes that allow me to be hazmat certified, and i've never spent more than 10 minutes in the hazmat shop.

Are you an AME by chance? If you arent then youre a faggot.

I reread your post and I think you might actually be a PR. You dont get to call yourself a mechanic, Stitch-bitch McGee.

i don't know what an AME is. im guessing that's something in the navy according to my google search.
lol not a stitch bitch. i'm a flightline mechanic. plane captain, CDI, working on my QAR

>tfw when I did 6 years as a nuke
>get out, both knees are shot, fucked in the head, try college, it really isn't for me.
>get a text from an army recruiter about reenlisting
I just want to drink myself to death, fuck off
