How recruiters are in each branch of the military

DS Green: Now Privates, I can't tell y'all to whoop a Squad Member's ass, but if y'all happen to "take corrective actions" to straighten out Private Kelly...well...but I can't tell y'all to whoop nobody's ass, see what I'm sayin'?

Blanket Party! :angry::yes:



We had a literal "Bama" in our Platoon who was from right outside of Ft. McClellan. That CAC would go AWOL for two or three days at a crack and our whole platoon would get smoked for hours because WE didn't have accountability and control of his stankin ass.

DS Green gave us that advice because Kelly was on some Ashton Kutcher/Mila Kunis shit and was funkin' up the whole bay. The FIRST time we beat his ass was to force him to shower. The second and third time was for going AWOL and getting US fucked up over it, as though we could stop him from sneaking off in the middle of the night.

His final ass whoopin' came at the hands of the Drill Sergeants themselves. He'd gone AWOL again and broke his arm climbing back over a fence to get back on Post. He tried to cut the Chow line because we put those on profile for injuries at the front of the line so they could hobble to a table while we were still filing in. Kelly broke his arm at our expense, so we weren't having any sympathy for HIS ass...get to the back of the line muhfucka! :hmm:

We exchanged words and the DS' overheard the commotion. They came to see WTF and a black DS told him to get to the back of the line and Kelly said, "Fuck you, ******!"

All 8 of our DS' did a Snatch and Grab on his ass, took him behind our barracks and gave that muhfucka the Beetle Bailey and proceeded to have his ass Chaptered out for "Failure to Adapt" to military standards.

The Air force recruiter was dead on the money. He wouldn't let me sign up for shit and back in 92 he was the only one in Birmingham.

After I took the ASVAB everyone else was fighting over me.

We must have had the same Recruiter, lol. My recruiter was in the old Festival Building, he acted like I was bothering him until he got my ASVAB scores back.

to explain.

if you live in the base your entire housing allowance is forfeit. If the allowance is increased, you rent goes up and it’s automatically taken out. You never see the money.

it’s great for when areas are in the middle of nowhere and the rent off base is low or The housing sucks. Saving grace is all utilities are included.

It’s not so great in areas like DC or NYC when the allowances of upwards of 2500-3000 bucks and you can find a place for 1500 out in Nassau county like I did.

This is pretty funny. Recruiters have a very demanding career. They get my respect. Majority of recruiter packets I reviewed, the troops weren’t the best.

the serviceshave the capacity to accept everyone from Einstein to Gump but rarely open categories up to go that far toward Gump.

The reason you saw some stupider people is because Americans have generally become DUMBER over the last 50 years. Coincidence that is goes along with the draft ending….

there are actually some very bright people in the military but sincethey can train almost anyone, you see a lot of slower (not Mentally handicapped) people.

I absolutely agree. My comment is regarding NCOs submitting a packet to go the recruiter route. Me & my CSM always interviewed NCOs that submitted a packet (it’s part of the process though a lot of BN command teams don’t do it & just sign off on the packet). Based off of my observations, the best NCOs were not pursuing recruitment opportunities.

The NCOs looking for a break from their career field, dodge a CTC rotation, or just looking to get out of the unit were the NCOs submitting packets. Ultimately, that does our profession a disservice.

This is just my experience, not all encompassing.

Don’t let me get started on career counselors.

LOL brings back memories. I was stationed in the Philippines for a few months. Saw many dudes get put on restriction (can't go off base and have to wear their uniform all day) for being MIA. I had a close call when this hoe wanted me to spend the night and I had to be at work at 7:30. She told me to go to sleep and she would wake me up. I wake up 0655, the hoe is gone and my pockets were ran through. Man I sprinted to the front gate and fortunately I saw some cacs from my unit getting in a cab trying to get back too. I jumped in and we changed clothes and made it to work by 7:25
