At the time, I was working for an agency where our director was an ex very high ranking army guy, and my supervisor was an ex marine that had one eye and a bad limp, and was awarded the congressional medal of honor by President Reagan. I asked them if it was a good idea, and they both said, "FUCK NO!". I listened. |

Muscles Are Required, Intelligence Non-ESsential Edit: To be fair, the current commandant is trying to change the Corps to be 'smarter' for lack of a better term. But it's kind of funny to hear about pushback to 'fighting smarter not harder'. Also, there are plenty of individual Marines that aren't dumb as bricks.

It's trying to figure out how to thank its own posts.

Still going. I reported 3 hours ago. Obviously since ichi is away this is now an unmoderated forum.
Let the anarchy begin!

Best way to tell a bot from a human, ask what car they drive. If they reply "man", it's 99% a bot.

The oldest took a less than safe course. He went into firefighting. He’s now a district captain in a nearby fire department, presently running their airport’s ARFF operation. The other got a CS degree and is now an engineer for a tech behemoth in Ultra’s and Humfrz’s part of the world. To borrow a phrase from the ancient Crusader in Indiana Jones, I think they, “chose wisely.”

Not that you're wrong though. Just pointing out it works for some people I guess. I considered military service starting with ROTC or one of the academies. We did a West Point tour as a field trip in 2001 so that might have had something to do with it. Probably good I didn't cause I really hate following orders lol. Both my grandfathers are air force veterans and they went in dirt poor. Like, my great grandmother couldn't afford to feed my grandfather so he was raised in a seminary kind of poor. That one was a radio tech in Korea, got an electrical engineering degree, and was very successful. Same story for the other one. Last edited by Spuds; 07-29-2022 at 09:40 PM. |
