A week before we went to the gas chamber, an MRE went missing, yes a fucking MRE. The squad bay was destroyed looking for it. So a week passes and its our platoon's turn for the gas chamber, we enter with gas masks. We're told to take gas masks off. The Senior Drill Instructors asks one question. "Who stole the MRE?" The NBC jerkoff adds 3 more CS pellets. I'll repeat myself. "Who stole the MRE?"SEREMAKER wrote:

We must have spent what seemed like 40 minutes in there without a mask.
Later we found out we were setup for failure. The Hardhat instructor took it.
bootcamp story :
at the rifle range our hardhat went changed into shitbag camos and tossed on a soft cover w/LBV and went into the range head ... ( you would swear he was one of us ) .... he walked in, while I was taking a piss ... there were a few washing there hands, 2 more taking a piss on either side of me and all the shitters were full .....
some recruit says something about the hardhat ( not knowing he was standing right next to him) and the DI flips the fuck out, shoves them all to the floor, grabs the back of my LBV throws me to the ground (not done pissing), tosses the other 2 pissers to the ground, kicks the shitter doors .... they hit the floor w/pants wrapped around there ankles ............ so we start to pump out some push ups while he screaming at us and drenching us with our canteens
I miss those days

If he started with the usual 2 or 3 pellets and added 3 more it sure wasn't even close to 40 minutes ... maybe 1 or 2 minutesS3v3N wrote:

One is very funny while the other one is really sad.SEREMAKER wrote:

Funny one, well, for me anyway:
Our platoon was a fuck up platoon. Seriously, we were always getting quarterdecked for something. Anyway, one night, one of the DI's got pissed about how field day went so he made everyone dump their trunks out. He then instructed everyone to mix up their stuff with everyone else's. So, in the middle of the squad bay, it was nothing but a huge pile of cammies, underwear, misc tools, kits, and the like. Andddd...I was instructed to get a push broom and proceed to push everyones crap into each other. Luckily for me, I was the closest to the DI hatch and was the closest to the cleaning closet so all my stuff was spared getting mixed up with everyone else's. The reason he did that was that instead of having our "alone time" doing stuff, the recruits would spend the time fixing their stuff. I still find that funny til this day.
Sad story:
The other platoon had a guy that was the guide and pretty much a Marines Marine. He was likely to get promoted from being the "I can't remember the term that was used for the two people picked to get meritoriously promoted" ...yea. Anyway, during rifle range, I was sitting on my box taking the recruits score while he was shooting. All of a sudden I hear a loud bang to my right. I look over and all I see is blood and brain matter. Then all you hear is "CEASE FIRE CEASE FIRE. UNLOAD, SHOW CLEAR". The rifle range personnel didn't even bother to check if people where clear. All you saw was DI's and the range officer getting everyone off the line. It turns out the guy I was talking about was about to go unq and was going to get recycled. Apparently, he was not able to handle that and ran out to the line and took a recruits M16 who was firing, and killed himself. That was very sad imo. They had a page for him in our "year book" that was in memoriam.

I remember my buddy grabbing this long terd he took and tossed it at one of my other buddies by surprise. Instead of getting mad, he just grabbed it tossed it right back. First guy tossed it again. Keep in mind, it was a lengthy log. It was being tossed around back and forth, the shit getting all over the hallway walls (we were in old 1970's era barracks. been in worse, been in much better) and peoples doors. Monday morning inspection comes and the CO and top are fuming over the shit smeared hallways. Wants to know who did it.
We all liked the two cats who did it so no one was going to snitch. Ended up doing a GI party (thats when everyone has to work on one task, usually cleaning, until the task is completely done.) till late that night. but, it was pretty funny.

The army doesn't suck because they got these and there is more reason that army doesn't suck.voodoodolphins wrote:

Ladies and Gentlemen of the Jury.
I rest my case.
No, we do, you can consider the above re-arranged list in order of increasing degree of suckyness from the least at the top, to the most at the bottom. imoPrivate_Adam wrote:

Everyone: We suck guys.
Civilians: Be honest, we do Suck.
Navy: Nice ships, but come on?
Army: Yeah, ok getting better, but still, some suckyness has been done, hasn't it.
Airforce: (and I should admit bias here - I'm English) Nice job! Most of the time.
Marines: You guys kick ass. And, while it's not always your fault, you do sometimes kick ass in the wrong places.
