Grebe.
Kinda like ducks but absolutely do not shoot them if they fly into your decoy setup.

It’s funny.
I still have a set of my BDU but I have no fucking clue where anything else is. I think my mama donated my dress blues to a local theater troupe.

My first was when we flew into Miami and LOL man those folks may as well be aliens.

Kinda caught me off guard to be honest.
She was cute as hell

It is a VERY popular opinion on the left. Enough so that people have said it to my face.

I disagree.
Average American thinks of soldiers as video game NPCs and don’t think twice when some kid in Kuwait gets turned into vapor because soldiers aren’t people.

A lot of very senior NCOs and FGOs live in Leander and Georgetown and commute to Hood too.

Drum still suuuuuuuuucks. 10th Mountain was ass.

06.03.2026 21:42 πŸ‘ 1 πŸ” 0 πŸ’¬ 0 πŸ“Œ 0

But Drum is worse than Hood.

Killeen is an hour from Austin and three from Dallas.

Watertown is an hour from Syracuse and frozen solid nine months out of the year.

I’m from Louisiana and enjoyed my time at Polk because it’s in Louisiana and I love Louisiana.

That said Polk fucking sucks. Leesville used to have a strip club in a double wide trailer and the only close β€œbig” town is Alexandria which LOL…

I think my new rule for kids and cell phones is they can have one when they don’t look weird holding it up to their tiny little head to talk.

Admin troops blown into atoms by a fucking long range missile fired by the worlds leading sponsor of terrorism while working in a cubicle in a temporary building in a third party nation didn’t fucking deserve it just for wearing their nations uniform.

Wild how some people on this website can find empathy for junkies and thieves but not Joe.

Look I’m not gonna fight about it but if you’ve read anything I’ve written and still come down with β€œfuck them troops given the chance they woulda killed those kids” I don’t need to see fuck else you gotta say.

Oh if he reads my email he’s gonna be pissed because I said a dim Infantry Pfc could’ve written it better as punishment for falling asleep on a guard shift

Living around oil you learn to tell how the economy’s going based on the price of a fishing boats,white F250s, and travel trailers on the used market.

Good news is if oil prices keep going up a nice second hand boat is gonna be cheap and easy to find along the Gulf Coast.

Pickups and RVs in West Texas too.

I wrote β€œa dim Infantry Pfc writing as a punishment for falling asleep during a guard shift would have managed more compassion…”

Imagine if they’d sent that shit to my mom when I got hurt.

What the fuck have they done to our organizations man? What is this rot?

Jody Chapter One ...barracks ethics made her off limits and as much as Pierce disliked the machine gunner from New Jersey and liked the little dark haired girl from California he couldn't act on it. He wasn’t a Blue ...

Running late today but it’s Friday and that occasionally means fiction.

Or in this case a bit of backstory for my novel that I’ve polished up a bit and tried to make interesting.

Really does.

Everybody shits their pants eventually the real treat is finding out how long before he gets in a fight because one of the machine gunners refuses to call him anything but β€œAngel”

Actors who play military roles and make it their personality should have to do at least one tour by law. Wahlberg. Pratt. Baldwin. Kitsch. Every generic white dude actor who did a two week boot camp and now wears a unit polo should go.

How’re they gonna reboot Firefly if that Baldwin guy’s on an LST in the Gulf waiting to invade Iran with his beloved Marines?

I mean…at least I got a unique niche?

Can’t wait to finish with this shit and move on to gunfights though.

The problem is the stuff I’ve been writing is very counter to my public persona. It’s not NOT me but it’s a little bit of me that I’ve kept hidden for a long time.

And while I find it amusing, essentially writing romance from a dirtbag Infantryman’s perspective I dunno if I’m pulling it off.
