I feel like I hang up my soul on Sunday night and drag along soul-less and spiritless from Monday onward to final formation on Friday afternoon. I have Saturday off but I'm usually too sleepy to do anything and just lie in bed. Then on Sunday, I do have energy but you know what I do? I spend most of the day doing laundry, cleaning, running errands, and prepping for Monday. I'm so burnt out because...

Multi role bridge company or any other with bridge capability. How does it differ from other engineer units? Or is it pretty much the same?

I’m curious because it seems pretty niche but the Army’s new division-based reorganization plan is calling for a lot more engineers (including bridge) with the whole “penetration division” concept for LSCO

Nothing special, it just feels good. After 3 years of doing a couple classes here and there I finally got into the grove of doing classes consistently.

If you’re not using your TA, use it. If you don’t know what degree you want, pick a bullshit degree and do some general education classes until you figure it out. Want to excel in your MOS and have better job opportunities after the Army? Get that...

'No, no, is okay... me hate Ramadan.'

'Dude what? Isn't Ramadan like your Christmas or some shit?'

'Meh, me hate Ramadan.'

So I go to pull...

At first it was cool, i showed up to my unit and felt like i joined a brotherhood. Things change over time, but i look around me and all i see is the circus everyone talks about. I cant take some of these guys seriously anymore, who they are and who they try to be dont match- if that makes any sense. I see a lot of two faced people who could definitely get reported on things they say, only to go...

To keep things short, I fucked up, ended up getting a field grade article 15. I admit to everything as soon as they questioned me.

I had just become a CPL before the investigation started and I had also just re-enlisted for a duty station of my choice (Carson). Reenlistment was for CONUS only, I wanted to reenlist for 3 more years, my wife wasn’t really excited about that but we agreed for me to...
