It’s that time of year when field ops grow in intensity as work ups progress on track for deployments. The world is also growing more unstable and the end of peacetime may be at hand. The majority of service members take training seriously from the get-go, but packing for the field must be adapted for each op. Every training evolution is an independent event that becomes easier with time and familiarity with standard operating procedures. An NCO or above can have everything right and tight in minutes with a complete packing list. So, while you’re waiting for your E-2s to figure out how to use the compression sack, laugh at this list of best military memes of the week.
Here are the best military memes of the week to laugh at while doing gear inspections
“Stop shooting with your knee cocked. What are you going to do? Run down range to the target at the 500m?”
“Partner up for the next exercise.”
*eye contact acknowledgment from across the room.*
I don’t know, man, this time everybody has rocket artillery. The IEDs come from the sky now.
Needs of the Corps.
Marines have never met this man in their lives.
Company CO: “…before you finish that sentence. Just know we can still cancel your terminal leave.”
Newly minted civilian: “Have a good morning, sir.”
They’re all suppositories.
At this point I don’t know what to believe unless it’s in writing.
That was just the worst four day weekend so far.
Oh they know, it’s the SNCO who does not care what they know and will dismiss them if they feel they can lose the manpower early. Which is no.
“Also the second deck lounge has been commandeered and the duty is missing.”
You know you can do your annual training at any point during the year. That’s without exaggeration, the last second to do it. One advice I gave my junior Marines was to do their annual and required training during down time. When Staff Sergeant is on the warpath looking for a working party and he catches you working on your career, guess what will happen? He will leave you the F alone. In fact, he will use you as a positive example when he finally catches someone slacking off. All my junior Marines were NCOs by the time I EAS’d. They earned it themselves, no doubt about it, but at least it wasn’t as frustrating as it could have been for them without guidance.
Yeah but he’ll figure it out eventually.
I still think the Space Force is wasting an opportunity to invent kick-ass billet titles for themselves. Take “Grand Commander of Galactic Artillery,” for example. You can keep that one for free, Space Force.
Are you making a theological crucible? That sounds like you’re trying to make a theological crucible for grooming standards with extra steps.
Semper I, not Semper Fi.
