Let's talk about stories and anecdotes from wars throughout history.
One of my favorite ones go like this:
>US soldiers on patrol inna sandbox
>suddenly under fire from nearby hills
>take cover and call in air strike
>once in a while a gunshot different sounding from the others will ring out
>the shot will hit eerily close to their position
>after the airstrike they go to clean up and find a bunch of hajis with AK's
>but there's also one old-ass man with a Mosin, SMLE, or similar ancient bolt-action rifle who was the one who'd been taking the good shots at them
>sometimes it'd even be a Martini-Henry that they'd used to pin them down
The jezail spirit lives on.
>Be SF support
>Live on SF compound surrounded by conventional forces
>Live in "crack house" on SF compound
>10th Mountain girls want to hang out on SF side because freedom and alcohol
>Basically have hoe living in crack house
>traphouse.png
>She lays down the ground rules after a couple of days
>Only one guy at a time and no butt stuff
>Bet
This is the face of modern warfare
Is this a bot post? I have no idea what the frick you're talking about.
>I don't understand English
That's because you are a neverserved.
No, you're just a fricking moron at coherence.
Ok, since you are super slow. I'll break it down for you using the Socratic method.
Read the first line. What do you think it means?
No, I understand your story, you're just fricking abhorrent at telling it.
Lay off the greentexts and read a book, Black person.
And like that a great thread was murdered in it's cradle
OP wanted a real war story. I gave him one. He just doesn't understand how gay war actually is. Do you have a war story?
>chilling on base is totally a war story bro, it's what OP wanted definitely not something like what he posted for his
And here's mine homosexual:
>soldier from Kentucky gets sent to fight in Europe, can't remember which world war
>gets bored on day and starts calling turkeys
>kraut pops his head up to check out noise
>shoot him
>continue baiting krauts with turkey calls and rack up a bunch of easy kills
>SF guys come in from the mish
>Hey bro, can we use your mancan?
>Um, yeah, but I was planning to chill tonight
>Well, we have this girl see....
>Oh, say no more bros
>By the way do you have any lube?
>Two bros positively run through this hoe for multiple hours
>I head back to get my key
>Naw bro, you can keep that woobie, I have like 5
>Chilling in my mancan, hear a knock at the door
>WTF? At this hour?
>It's the hoe
>Thanks for letting me hang out
>Yeah it's cool
>Big hug
>So is there a place I can get cleaned up?
>Yup, right across the street
War is hours of homosexualry punctuated by moments of something really gay. You neverserveds will never understand.
Never said it wasn't, OP was clear about what he wanted though, your stories ain't it
>neverserved
Not yet, leave in a month
Don't remember all the details to this one but:
>be fancy recon of some kind
>deep in injun country, Vietnam iirc
>enemy patrol passes by
>one man stops, takes a leak
>on your helmet
>wait for him to finish, definitely not because of the raging boner you now have, kill him after
>Last rotation in Afghanistan before US withdrawal
>Be NCOIC
>Have black female soldiers
>E4 wants to argue with a black female CPT from another command when corrected about her hair
>Multiple counselings
>Must conduct counselings in the presence of a black E-7 and female O-2 just to cya my female and racial EO angle
No, he asked for actual war stories. I have given three so far. Do you have any of your own stories? Let me ask you. Beyond the internet and this troony board, do you know anything about actual war?
I actively look down on any man that would enjoy the blown-out, barely washed pussy of a wook in-field
Disturbing that some people think this is cool, it's like watching a man eat from a dumpster
Have some standards holy shit
>Be Cav unit next to an MI Bn
>WTF? Who thought this was a good idea?
>Trailer beast from MI needs hugs
>Dude sneaks MI chick in barracks
>Second floor 8 man bay
>You dude, check this out.png
>15 guys in lawn chairs watching 8 guys run a train on girl why sounding off with jump commands
>One guy has an equipment malfunction and has to get sorted out in the corner before he can get back in the stick
Listen, I have done many things I am not proud of, but I have seen far far worse.
Cavalrymen deserve everything they get
kek BTFO
he's talking about dirty military prostitutes
>that flag
holy shit that post is savage as frick
It's a VPN, genius.
bet that guy fricks
An old neighbor/family friend had served on the western front and had a story about one of those "Look the enemy in the eye and let them go" stories. This was during the battle of the Hurtgen forest. Later he would be wounded, continue serving in Germany and while administering some mine or something would marry a local.
Meeting this guy 50 years after the fact you would've never guessed that he had taken part in some of the most brutal battles in our history. Very kind old man, he would tell me these stories while teaching me Chess of all things.
Will GWOT vets 50 years from now be telling their stories to their grandchildren? I doubt it. Something to think about
>Women
>Blacks
>Black woman
>Poor leadership
>Black leaders
>Black female leaders
I tell my my kids anyone who will listen that memes are real. And the people in charge really don't understand why there is a recruiting crisis.
Not all black female officers are terrible. That being said, the worst officer I’ve ever known was a black female.
>Not all....
Yes. Muh exception to the rule doesn't negate the rule.
Because there is literally nothing going on. People join in for the action or for the benefits. 2 of which the military does have, but are beaten by other works in the market.
>There is nothing going on
The services are in panic mode. They know they may have to do a Ukraine or China, and they know readiness is in the toilet.
Depends on who controls the government and media in 50 years. Notice how all those Afghanistan movies basically stopped once we pulled out? The government and their slaves in Hollywood don't want to make themselves look bad, so they're not gonna highlight losses. If actual human beings control things, it'll probably be tolled like Vietnam, lost by the suits
There is literally a new Afghanistan movie coming out. They’ve never had issues about making movies about Vietnam either.
Then I'm wrong, hopefully it talks about how the morons in the MIC and government (basically the same) drew it out and then lost it
Is that a dude wearing a chest rig made by sewing a bunch of those old ALICE compass/bandage pouches together? I love those old tribal guys, they're like Indians but just want to be left to their own little devices
Good question actually. I was about to say it is a local variation of the SKS bandolier, but dropped 15 minutes into researching it at it could be THIS ww1-vintage BAR 1918 bandolier. Or a local copy, of course.
I doubt it, Afghans pefered German, Czech, some French, and especially British equipment in the interwar period. If you look on his left side, the strap even has a British-style metal cover on the end of it. Also, the snap placement on the pouches and the canvas over the pouches' edges look just like ALICE pouches. If its all locally produced, its good, but I think they just used what was available at their local bazaar or what they had laying around. The general fit of it was probably based off of an SKS bandolier, though, since I know for a fact they've made their own copies of it
I looked into British, Indian, Pakistani, soviet and Chinese bandoliers. Didn't find one 100% match. The most puzzling element are the shiny buttons. If you can find one sample beside that single photo showing the same bandolier I'll be quite interested.
It looks like a faded OD green bandolier. See the little blotch of green on the left pouch, his right? I think the buttons were once black (paint or finish) and they wore shiny. IIRC they're usually brass (on US equipment) though which confuses me. The yellow-y fringe reminds me of a bag I have which I never ID'd due to laziness (and hope isn't just chinkshit). Maybe WWI era? Those lines stitched into the pouches really remind me of WWII era US canteen pouches. Maybe I'm just moronic and it's a really obvious and common bandolier.
heard this one from some army guy
>be in Afghanistan
>be bored as frick in some FOB
>him and his buddy drinking like a fish
>gets a bright idea to go on a little "patrol"
>starts up a humvee with rigged speakers and drives into the nearest village
>starts blasting classic rock and metal as soon as they're out of sound range from FOB
>runs out of liquor so buys more at the village
>more booze cruising around the desert
>almost gets caught by a real patrol but realizes its british so no need to worry
>whew.jihad
>realizes its getting dark
>rushes back to FOB
>in the middle of buttfrick nowhere so it takes an hour or two to get back
>its dark by then
>turns off lights and music to try and make a sneaky return
>runs into the fricking barbwire on the perimeter of the FOB
>spends rest of night trying to untangle the metal spaghetti from under the humvee
>finally returns to base unnoticed and unchewed by higherups
>gets 2 hrs of sleep
>ends up being noticed and in turn chewed out by higherups then sent on an actual patrol
probably misremembered some details but you get the gist
Question to you guys who served in the desert:
Is there ever any interaction with the local women? You see that pop up in every other war with brothels and shit popping up and people bringing home war brides. Did anything like that happen with Afghan/Iraqi women? or is the islamic culture potent enough to have that not happen at all?
Not that I ever saw/heard about in two goes through Iraq (2010 and 2012)
I've got a fun one
for context: my grandfather was a captain in the US army during WWII. He never talked about the war but definitely say some shit. Brought back a few sabers, daggers, armbands, and copy of Mein Kampf from a german public library. Received a bronze star too

he felt terrible about it after he learned what he had done, but they later laughed about it and told that story for years.
Some people put their penis where I wouldn't put the ferrule of my umbrella.
