Are you sure you're prepared for anything? You can't even take a picture without shaking and blurring it.

[quote]It was pretty bad ass, I got to shoot a .50 cal, the m240 and m249 (the big ass machine gun that's mounted on tanks and shit.)[/quote] Someone obviously wasn't paying attention, the M240 is the one usually mounted on Humvees and the Abrams' loader's weapon. M249 is an infantry weapon, and the M2 is the 'big ass machine gun'. Aside from that, I wish you luck in your deployment! Especially since you're being a combat medic, that's probably one of the most admirable positions to have in the military.

Good luck to ya! I'm planning on joining the Navy soon if my recruiter would just wake the fuck up.

congrats man i hope to join the airforce soon, how was the basic training?

[QUOTE=antonio1442;18736349]congrats man i hope to join the airforce soon, how was the basic training?[/QUOTE] AF basic is nothing like Army basic. I'm going into the Air Force after I graduate this year. Cryptologic linguist :rock:

[QUOTE=j-richardson;18735114]We rely on our Navy[/QUOTE] Our Navy and Airforce are more advanced and better than anybody elses. True our infantry isn't as good (Skill wise), But in a war were it's becoming less of actually seeing the enemy and more of just bombing them from a distance it becomes less important. Infantry is still important though, as always. Rate me boxes if you want, But there's no point since most people only seem to care about who has the better infantry which we (USA) don't have.

What's it like shooting a .50 Cal?

What rank are you?! Im 68 third prestige

[QUOTE=Guardian-Angel;18732902]durrhrurur its british so its better :downs: [/QUOTE] They're so elite because the recruitment is fucking harsh. You can only apply a limit amount of times, and they rarely get new members.

OP is base fobbit.

[QUOTE=noahh;18736732]What's it like shooting a .50 Cal?[/QUOTE] fun, lots of fun

gratz!

Just remembered that thread you made about joining the army. Glad ya did it! This world needs more men like you.

Damn, you sleep 60 people in one bay? In Sweden it's 15 per bay.

congrats OP :golfclap:

Wait, what's all this british superiority shit? You have what, 1 million or so members of your armed forces total? Our ARMY just plain army and army reserves is around 1 million. Oh right, don't forget rangers, green berets, and seals. :wtc: EDIT: not really a lololoamerican superiority... but people that are like... OMG BRITISH WINRAR Of THE WORLD YEA

Ah the Mark 19. Nothing like firing round after round of 40 Mike Mike's... I can't wait for Basic.

[QUOTE=Donutsalad;18732962] I will get a M4 when I go out on patrols, however in the FOB, control base, w/e, I will only have a 9mm pistol. M4 is lighter (Thank god) 12lbs may not sound like much but holding the M16A4 in the standing unsupported firing position for 2 hours nonstop, then it feels like a ton.[/QUOTE] You're not really actually going to be too sure with that. It'll depend heavily on your unit or mission requirements. M16A2 is like 7 something pounds unloaded, it's round 8 something pounds loaded, unless you happen to have shitloads of crap on it. [QUOTE=noahh;18736732]What's it like shooting a .50 Cal?[/QUOTE] It's fucking loud, and when you're behind it or by the sides, it feels like someone's just slapping you and you feel it all inside in your organs. Though when you're firing it, you don't even remember that feeling other than "the massive large gun you're firing, is fucking awesome". [QUOTE=Dr. Jim Dean;18736923]OP is base fobbit.[/QUOTE] I know I will be (MOS 52D), though OP is Combat Medic, so he's going to be out there.

I want to see the shirts that the rest of the platoons have.

Wait so, when you go into the military, after basic you get kickass shirts like those?

[QUOTE=Demonlord;18740624]11B is where it's at.[/QUOTE] I like you, let's be light infantry pals.

[QUOTE=floppypick;18741078]Wait so, when you go into the military, after basic you get kickass shirts like those?[/QUOTE] You want to join just so you can get a shirt, don't you. Good luck with everything OP, you're more ballsy then pretty much everyone here.

[QUOTE=redBadger;18731840]Nothing beats Americas Army! That army is the greatest in the world...i don't want to brag, but it's true based off of true facts.[/QUOTE] Bet it makes it worth being in debt to most countries, doesn't it? How much does the US owe Japan now?
