Taking the OAR on Wednesday. Despite having a 3.95 GPA I'm fucking retarded so got a lot of anxiety around this, particularly mathI had a 97 on my ASVAB years ago but the OAR guides got some crazy shit like square roots of logs that I am too retarded to figure out
>>64608445What designator are you shooting for? You really only need to bag 50 or higher, since 50 is the average score among testers.

>>64608520Do you think the reason Robert Bales went psycho was because he sold his soul?
>>64608527He was just low IQ.
>>64608354Most enlisted have second jobs.

>>64608918Even if you count dropshipping and uber as jobs, still not true.
>>64608964https://abcnews.go.com/US/robert-bales-apologies-massacre-calls-cowardice/story?id=20039662You sure about that? Even he isn't as ideologically pure as you wish him to be. Even the guy you named yourself after doesn't want to be your hero.
>realizes his "hero" apologized for his bad behavior>realizes he named himself after a guy that doesn't want to be associated with his war crimes>realizes that his whole plan to join the Army and re-enact the massacre of women and children of Afghanistan was in dedication of a man that would have looked down on him>realizes that he got a BCD for NOTHING, that he tried to destroy /meg/ for NOTHING, and after 6 years of dedicated pressure, he has NOTHING to show for it.Laugh in his fat, dysgenic face. Laugh so hard he hears it in his sleep. Laugh until he smacks his plate of tendies in anger, yelling until his mommy storms into his childhood bedroom to change his diaper and sedate him with risperdal.
>>64609038Thank you by communicating, via projection, that we really are in the final quarter of this game. I'm thinking about writing a letter to Robert Bales asking him what he would say to a kid that thinks what he did was cool. How far do you think you would spiral if you had a handwritten letter from your idol telling you that you are a fucking loser? Who would you take it out on? The National Guard? Your mommy? The local recruiting station? No, I think you would just compartmentalize and pretend it's not true, that having your hero mortally wound your ego didn't collapse your entire worldview.Robert, you're trying to blame the world for why you didn't get to serve, but everyone keeps telling you that it's your own fault. You grew up wanting to be a soldier more than anything, but when you were told "No", you couldn't move on, just like so many real soldiers that came back home and don't want to do anything else but go back. You're just like them, except you don't even know what you're missing out on.

>>64609111See me where? I'm not driving to East Peoria, IL, and you have no idea where I am.
>>64608920If you are reasonably fit BCT and AIT isn't that hard. I was 20 and mostly fit I ran a few miles easily worked out 2 to 5 times a week consistently, 50 push-ups max maybe before enlistment maybe 100 situps max at the time. I was in AG hold on 911 and they pushed us but it was not that hard. Nowadays I'd do a long dose of IVM before I hit the plane the worst part was the peteidish sickness the first month for me. Sand hill was cool, the ruck at the end for the cord was the hardest part. I stayed above middle of the pack and got everything I wanted from it including air assault.. got pulled into science cause of test scores though. oh well.
>>64609148Oh okay, I guess I'll be on the lookout for headline"Obese 4channer detained trying to enter Eglin AFB"
>>64609191Good thing you're not allowed to purchase any firearms, otherwise I might actually keep my head on a swivel JFL
>>64608118>he announced his plan to copycat your gamer momentDid he actually do this? Are there any screenshots of this?
Post cool military guys
Preferred uniform?
>>64609238Yes and yes.
>>64609238He posted his DD214, which explicitly states that he was kicked out of the Army for violating DOD Law of War 5.2. Now he spends his days trying to make a case that, since other people in the Army were bad, he shouldn't have been kicked out. That's why he's now posting pictures of vets that committed crimes - he's just upset that they got to serve and he didn't.
>>64609271Can I see them?
>>64609279Why are you asking us to post your DD214? Shouldn't you be getting on the road?
>be me>23 years old>want to join Airforce>5 years ago, I was in DEP for Airforce and being the stupid teenager I was, backed out because my recruiter changed my afsc a few weeks before my ship out date (yes I realize I should have just sucked it up and taken the new afsc)The only branch I would consider joining is the Airforce. How screwed am I? Obviously, I would be talking to a different recruiter, but am I blacklisted from joining the Airforce now? Is there a blacklist?
>>64609286I'm not the fat fuck you think you're talking to, I just thought there might have been a picture or video of him screaming about killing afghani children or something lmao
>>64609292Nah, he's too afraid people will make fun of his appearance again. The last time he posted a picture, his hand was in frame and everyone made fun of how fat it was. I mean seriously, this dude is mad obese. His knuckles look like dimples.
>>64609291You aren't on any sort of blacklist, but you will have to explain why you backed up. Switching things up on you last minute wasn't cool, but they are just going to cite "needs of the service". If you get a second chance, there will be an expectation that you stick with it. Back out again and you're done.
>>64609323>but they are just going to cite "needs of the service"So this time around I will have no say in my afsc?
>>64609336You will go through the process all the same as before. What I mean is that the reason things changed last minute had to do with "needs of the service", which goes beyond what any recruiter can control.
>>64609336you never did
>>64609351Got it, thanks.
>>64609351>the reason things changed last minute had to do with "needs of the service", which goes beyond what any recruiter can control.Wrong, faggot. It was the 'needs of the recruiter'.Recruiters are lying scumbags and are only interested in their own metrics.
>>64609362Loud mouth for a guy that never served
>>64609303>The last time he posted a picture, his hand was in frame and everyone made fun of how fat it was.Wasn't that the toe thumb guy?
>>64608354Don't get married, don't go in debt for motor vehicles, use TSP etc and use your education bennies every time you get the chance. One of the biggest asspains as a supervisor is getting good troops to take advantage of adult education and free degree which also helps you make rank.
Is the new trolling technique just spamming about the troll until bump limit with NO relevant on-topic posts?
>>64608918Confirmed for not being enlisted. Junior single enlisted who aren't retarded always have disposable income because they basically have no overhead. I quite enjoyed collecting motorcycles and the flexible Air Force flightline manning schedule permitted shift changes I'd not get elsewhere. A wisely chosen military career has a shitload of leisure time to make up for annoyances. A month's leave every year is magnificent, and the combo of disposable income and time is outstanding especially when overseas. I enjoyed Germany, Turkey and South Korea and didn't mind sand box deployments at all.Compensation including the benefit package is well worth it.Never feeling recessions for the rest of your adult life if you go career is amazing. Certaintyof income is more enabling than feast or famine at the whims of Wall Street.Americans love war so why not give the voters what they ask for? Americans including brown people like blowing up brown people and so indicate with the utter honesty of money. You're welcome for my cervix.
>>64609571tl;dr
>>64609504No, the new trolling technique is religiously calling everyone a schizo and pretending that robert doesnt exist.Its transparent. I asked a question on topic and only got one answer that was kinda rambley. The thread since then has been a back and forth between the immovable object and robert.>I almost called him an unstoppable force but I realized that would be giving him way too much credit
>>64609571Can confirm, I spent money on a lot of dumb shit because of how much I was able to save. My worst habit is buying new cell phones every year, so now I have a section of one of my drawers with a pile of phones that I should just sell or trade.
>>64609724Making Robert think it's just one person that dislikes him cracks me up. Since he does this all by himself, he assumes he is facing equal opposition, instead of being reviled by the entire board
Can I get any more input from my post from the last thread?>>64602496
^ Wrong post, my bad.>>64602097
>>64609836Like was said, you should be looking at logistics jobs
>>64609837Anger directed towards me is indicative of my success. I have torqued Robert up enough to reap the benefits all week long
So I'm a 19D in the National Guard and my section is being moved from an HHC to an actual infantry company but the switch requires all us to become 11Bs. The thing is that we also have the option to transfer out of the unit and can pick a completely different MOS so I choose a bunch of 35 series jobs. My 1SG told me that since I have a high GT score I'm just wasting my abilities as a scout and that I shouldn't have much issue transferring over to intel. That being said I'm wondering what actually are the chances of me being able to successfully transfer over because I have a bad feeling that my request is going to be shot down.
>>64610127Have you considered malingering?
>>64610181How would faking being sick improve my chances?
>>64610185It would improve your chances of retiring with a 100% disability rating.
I have the opportunity of posting out West as an enabler. Worth it, or just stick to cushy local area with Gucci trips?
>>64610982Can you repeat that in English?
>>64608354If Army, steal shit and resell it on tacswapIf Airforce, sell AI furry art commissions to your fellow airmenIf Navy, you know what to doMarines make do

>>64608920Get option 4 in your contract and volunteer for rasp at airborne school
>>64611396what do "option 4" and "rasp" mean?
>>64608118Is there any reason to go military over federal LEO if your able to? Seems like you can get the same /k/ experience joining Border Patrol, or DSS at some point if you want overseas action. Plus the pay bump from going feds over military would make the GI Bill or VA Home Loan obsolete. Federal benefits seem to mog military benefits. And some GS-13 guys in BP are making +$130k and Marshal's like $225k. Plus you have more autonomy and could quit if you wanted.
>>64611510stfu and stop pretending to ask questions retard.I asked this question: >>64608920You are not me, fuck yourself faggot
>>64611857>if you're able toIf you can skip the military service and go directly into fed work, then do so. The carrot on the stick for going MP is easy access to all lines of LEO work after getting out.
>>64611396Why RASP? What if I dont want to be in the 75th Ranger Regiment but I want to go to Ranger School, what do I do?Seems like there isnt an easy way into Ranger School by itself.
>>64611938Nevermind I'm a retard. You have to do RASP to get into Ranger School.
>>64611938>>64612117Double nevermind.This is the last time I'm reading Google's stupid AI
So if you get Option 4 on your contract, will they stick you in an airborne unit right away?
>>64611933>The carrot on the stick for going MP is easy access to all lines of LEO work after getting outCaveat. It's not easy. Any PD, USA doesn't give a fuck about whether or not you were MP. You could do another MOS that doesn't suck and still apply to any police station.MP has some of the shittiest details in the Army period.MP has the shittiest promotions.E-1 through E-4 get the shittiest possible details and duty.Superiors will treat you like garbage, others will too especially those you have to question.The slight bright side is that you might (depending on the unit) get experience using certain drones in training exercises, although this is not guaranteed.Otherwise just fucking pick another MOS, leave MP to the guys whose dad and granddad was a cop and the retards who didn't do their research.
>>64612361For sure. Now if you get some marine interdiction experience with the Navy or Coast Guard, that's a different story... but you are obviously specializing in that case
How much free time you generally have on your first 2 years in the marine corps?
I’m thinking of joining the Army, but my uncle keeps telling me I’m going to regret it and to join the Airforce. He was a 12b during Gulf War 2 from 2003 - 2007. Is he right?
>>64612545Yes, only join the Army if there is a specific path you intend to follow. If you are up for whatever, the Air Force (though really Space Force) is where you should go.
>>64612545Go Army
>>64612566Why?
>>64612545olds are obsessed with gravy trains and sinecures, if you want to soldier join the army and tell them to fuck off
Is there any unit that comes even close to being as highly trained and deadly as Marines besides the navy seals?I have heard army rangers and there training almost reaches the level of Marines but not quite
>>64614346>I have heard army rangers and there training almost reaches the level of Marines but not quiteWhat retard told you that?
>>64614389My older brother and my uncles are US MarinesMarine Boot Camp is one of the toughest things a person can go through in life and from what I have heard even special forces like the navy seals base there training on Marine Boot Camp
>>64614408lmao this has to be bait.
>>64614408(You)
Robert's new MO is to drown out all the real questions with shitposting it seems.I have legit questions I am never going to get an answer to because neither google nor this place has the answer.Fuck sake.
>>64614833Hi Rob
Blows my mind anyone thinking of joining the Army doesn’t immediately choose 19K or 19C. You have to be absolutely retarded to choose MP in general. What’s the best branch in the Army and why is it ARMOR?
>>64614884Fort Bragg Cartel enforcer
>>64614833Point to your question

>SFAS getting closer and closer on the calendar
>>64615346See you there :D
>>64615310That question is far too vague, depending upon MOS. >>64615329Gotta wait to see if anyone who went through RASP can weigh in
>>64615532I am not that anonBut fixing the question. How much free time a 0311 has in the first 2 to 3 years in the marine corps?
>>64615766>free timeanon you are going to get your anus destroyed (metaphorically speaking) for those first two-three years until your seniors are convinced you aren't a retard.
>>64615865So it will be like what0600 to 1900?
>>64615948it depends on the unit and what they have planned. it would be difficult to give you a blanket schedule for the entire field that would be accurate. but yeah yo ass will almost certainly be up before 0600 daily. if you are attached to something like a MEU or another deployment you will have a very packed schedule.
