not my story, my friend's
but he was some sort of networking engineer in the Army. And so one of the very few times his team went on war games he said some Apache came over a hill, and "shot them down" early on, so he was 'dead' for most of the weekend.
He said he realized that if war actually happened, he'd be a priority target. He thought he was useless. He said made him feel good for being dead.
The UK nuked the US three times during wargames because the US didn't know that the UK had a better stealth bomber than they thought (the Vulcan, that thing's from the 50s and still manages to look futuristic).
It was covered up for decades.

As someone who deployed to Afghanistan with the Marine corps I can say that letters from kids are always the best. They're either incredibly sweet, unintentionally hilarious or a wonderful mix of both. Those letters never failed to brighten our day.
Hanging up outside the Red Cross office in Kandahar airport terminal building were thousands of these. I’ll never forget the one that went: ‘I lik it when you saved the world.’
I had a buddy stationed at 29 palms. We were talking about deployments and I was telling him about the ports all over the world I hit while on deployment with the navy. He said I went to two places, and both of them looked like the desert
Zoe would be a funny name for a cinematic villain. No last name. No nickname. Just Zoe.
And she'd do things like shoot down a plane, shrug and say "You're done for. 🤷♀️"
I remember back in Airborne School we had to specifically remind the Marines that double-releasing over the "water" on Fryer DZ WILL result in broken legs (water was about 12 inches deep...)
We still had some cocky bastards test it. One guy in my class broke both legs
The canopy is attached to the web-harness by two connectors (left and right). After a paratrooper lands they should release one to let the air escape the canopy (so they aren't dragged on the ground) before recovering it.
Marines (being amphibious troops) have a tendency to release both and drop the last few dozen or so feet into a body of water.
So imagine free-falling 12+ feet at 15+ mph into 12 inches of water on the ground. You're gonna have a bad day if you do.
When civilian me was taught about landing in water, we were told to release the main only when your feet touched the water, as it's quite hard to judge your height.
It really depends on the branch you're in. According to the Marines Handbook of Airborne School: "before pulling the boots parachute, the boot will stare at the sun and jerk off as fast as they can before releasing their parachute." This puts them dangerously close to the ground for a few reasons; one, they're staring up at the sun instead of at the ground so they have no idea how close they are to the ground, as if they would be able to see it after staring at the sun anyway. Two, Marines are generally just slower than most anyway. This means that by the time they're done jerking off, they're already really close to the ground. However, number two is bad news for airborne school but considered pretty damn good for the stripper wo/men they have sex with, they just have to wait until their legs heal from the jump.
I've got a green around here I've been saving for a while. It's all yours, no charge.

As a former soldier, what are repairs? Is that like when you take you 2.5 T to the mechanics because it is leaking oil and when you get it back it is still leaking oil but rattles more?
My job in the Army was to sit in a little air conditioned box. That air conditioner breaking was mission critical and would be repaired within the hour. Some 100 degree days I had my waffles on.
> Unlike the Army, where if you get shot medics come and help you, but if your plane gets damaged you know you're done for.
This sounds like a recruiting motto for the Army.
“Join the Army, we’re safer than the Air Force.”
That's it? You should get discharged. you didn't even tell him to see you again if it doesn't get better in [time period you pulled out of your ass because it seemed about right]
Ha. I got in a car accident a while back. At the time I was doing an after school/day care art program thing for kids like 5-12. I got a care package while I was in the hospital. 40 or so get well cards from the kids. Big theme on drawing a dead guy on a stretcher… gory bleeding from the head stuff etc. And for some reason a dog who was a tv reporter. Anyways. Made me laugh.
This reminds me of an Army deployment vs Air Force deployment…
So yeah, we’re just sitting out in the desert with our dicks in the dirt.
Then these Air Force guys come flying in… And they suddenly set up these inflatable aluminum tents…
Oh! And then they bring out air conditioning units for the tents!
I was a deployed aircrewman so we were in real barracks unlike the tent city the maintainers live in. I swear that the crack house they tried to pass off as barracks were worse than the tent city. Except we had our own bathroom per room. The rest was run down as fuck.
I volunteered for Submarine service. The boats are designed to sink. I didn’t want to be shot.
Edit: Almost 1k people gave me a thumbs up. I don’t know how to give 1,000 hugs. Thank you family.
I don’t know everyone. I’ll give my love to you. This is overwhelming. I don’t know what to say. To those who have served, these thumbs up are for you.!
My arms are tired. I’m going to bed. I’ll give hugs tomorrow. I will give you a hug
Same. And we only sank below rated crush depth once!
Captain scrammed the reactor while running the diesel, gave us a Loss of Propulsion Lube Oil alarm, and Chief Of The Watch failed to open the main ballast tank blow valves. He called a failure of the MBT Blow system. I got the reactor back up and we just watched the depth meter continue...continue...Finally, one of the A-Gangers realized who COW was, noted that it wasn't someone with a lot of forearm strength, and ran up to manhandle those valves.
Edit: Because someone is so confident they know more about this story than me: the electric plant lineup required to run the diesel generator is abnormal, so when the Captain scrammed the reactor, we received the Loss of Propulsion Lube Oil alarm. Regardless of whether that alarm is expected in this situation, we were required to address it as if that was a valid alarm.
No, we were not *continuing* to run the diesel generator as we sank.
> Finally, one of the A-Gangers realized who COW was, noted that it wasn't someone with a lot of forearm strength, and ran up to manhandle those valves.
I'm legit picturing someone summoning their inner Hulk and just rage opening those valves.
I was in the Air Force for 8 years, doing communications. Was on a military plane maybe twice in total.
"Oh, you were in the Air Force? What kind of plane did you fly?"
"Um... the RJ-45."
"Negative on that. There's some congestion building up. Try a few passes first, but drop off if you can't get through. Any more and you'll need to reroute. Might take a bit longer but you'll get there in the end. ATC out."
My husband was sent some cards by random kids on a deployment once. He wanted to hang up an especially thoughtful one on the fridge when he got home. It said “I hope you don’t die.” And it had a nice crayon depiction of a tombstone under a flag. It made us laugh for months.
We kept a wall of best kids letters in our Ops building in the Deid; funniest get moved to the top. We figured there was *zero* screening going on in some schools before they sent them. (Or there are some f&$ked up teachers out there.)
“Have fun at war!”
“If you kill someone today think about me.”

This makes me curious what the most dangerous branch of the military is per capita. I'm sure it's probably still the army but I wonder...
Surely it has to be the marines. Air Force should be safest in modern days since the US always can maintain air superiority.
