It’s about damned time things go back to normal. Hopefully while while they’re at it they’ll teach these kids to properly press a uniform and polish their damned boots.

quote:

The U.S. Army will soon launch a redesign of Basic Combat Training intended to build more discipline after many commanders complained that new soldiers often show up to their first units with a sloppy appearance and undisciplined attitudes. By early summer, new recruits will go through Army BCT that's designed to instill strict discipline and esprit de corps by placing a new emphasis in drill and ceremony, inspections, pride in military history while increasing the focus on critical training such as physical fitness, marksmanship, communications and battlefield first aid skills.

Look at this.... Look at these unorganized grabastic pieces of amphibian shite...


What the frick is on their feet?
Where the frick is their cover? Since when did a soldier go outside without his cover?
Fleece fricking pullovers?
Some wearing gloves and some not? So now we just wear whatever the frick we feel like?

I would have expected this more out of USAF than the Army if I'm being honest with myself.

They do look like dogshit. I remember everyone having to wear the exact same shite. It didn't matter if you were hot or cold... whatever they told you to wear, EVERYBODY wore. And it was the same... no mis-matched fricking tennis shoes and shite.

I agree with you. Army discipline, as a whole, is a joke.
Looks like these guys are in-processing from the "Go-fasters" and the glow belts. that glove shite should never fly- Uniformity for them putrid fricks.

Y'all need to get rid of those stress cards too. I would be embaressed. The Marine Corps went PC for a minute, but Mad Dog is addressing that shite and we seem to have gotten back to normalcy.

ETA: Y'all need to do something with that fat midget DI.

It’s sad how far things have gone downhill since my time in the 80s and early 90s.

Maybe they will ditch the sensitivity training for real Army training

Thankfully all that horseshite came after my time. I remember hearing about “stress cards” after my time in active duty was over and i was in the army guard. I remember thinking had I’d tried pulling a “stress card” on Drill Sgt. Wallace, he’d have taped it to the end of his highly polished tanker boot and shove both up my arse until I tasted Kiwi.

That would be in USMC boot camp.

Army recruits are unorganized grabastic pieces of terranean shite.

Because they shouldn’t be there to begin with. That’s an artillery unit. Women have no business being artillerymen. Should not be Infantry, Armor, or cav either now that I think of it.

Maybe chill the fuch out a little bit. They’re in the army but they’re still human beings.

How much of this is on the drill instructor? How in the hell is he allowing this to happen? Maybe they need to retrain them as well.

Should be on their heads. When a soldier is outside, head is covered. When indoors, cover comes off.

Wrong. Head is covered anytime a soldier is outside.

No, I said exactly what I meant to say.

quote:

yes, fleece pullovers are warm

So are snuggies and grandma’s hot coco, buttercup.

quote:

That’s ate the frick up.

Choose? So I guess the US Army is fricking Burger King now. Just choose whatever you want.
