Do any of you guys regret joining the military? When did you wake up to what these wars were really about? Has the service altered your political beliefs in any way?
Question for those that have served in the military
Yes, defend Israel Goy
No, I don't regret it. There's a lot of bullshit, and of course the military is a tool wielded by mostly unworthy masters for nefarious purposes. But the benefits I get from my service mean that I get to go to school full-time without having to work and have no student debt when I graduate. Coronachan hasn't affected my income one bit.
I wept with tears in my eyes as I snapped the emus neck.
after my 8th tour in Beruit I started to regret it. Rightaround the time my Squadmate Ricky Ricardo had his legs blown off by a tank. this was back in 1985
yeah i regret joining, wanted to kill mudslimes for "terrorism". I found out about kikes and all wars for israel and immediately left.
I joined the Navy, it was the best decision of my life. They actually looked out for me, and the friends I made while I was in are the only people who ever cared about me.
Boot 0331pfc here.
Never been in war but I hope that changes.
I couldn't care less if the govt is Jewd or not I didnt have many prospects outside of the Corps.
Only having a high school education and 2 misdemeanors my job opportunities are limited.
>inb4 dying for Jews/welfare queen
Suck my dick. I will be getting fed, housed, medical insurance, BAH, free college for me and my kids while you fags still live with your mother's
I hope to make the jump to officer after I get a degree and then I'll be living even more lush get fucked
90s fag here, was pretty cool
What other job pays me to work out and shoot guns
>let me sell myself out to further the jews plans
>surely this won't backfire with them stabbing me in the back
Idiot
Where you there when all those Marines died?
How many Iraqi T-72s did you see get blown up?
Don’t regret it at all, great for your overall development. But I could not imagine joining again after returning to a country that seems to hate its largest demographic...
It is also a bit strange to realize at some point that there are no good guys or bad guys. The Taliban doesn’t wake up in the morning thinking they are the ‘baddies’, we are all just true believers...
Also to any anons who were deployed to Helmand, Afghanistan, how does it feel knowing the Taliban basically took back most of the territory after 2014? The ANA is absolute horse shit. Also any stories about ANA soldiers or Afghan police?
>yeah, I made the world a more dangerous place so bankers could make a dollar
>but at least I got my free shit
Thanks.
I wish I joined I hate college and barely have time to go outside much less exercise with bros, do chores, and shoot guns all day. My only fren from highschool joined and is having a blast, apparently he gets laid like crazy but he was a chad before so I don't know which caused it. He also drinks all day too but he lies a lot.
I get dumb fuck weed addict roommate and 3 hour long assignments while he gets pussy, free trip to africa/arizona, and gets to work out all day.
If you go to a community college, they recruit there a lot. They sometimes recruit on other campuses like mine (which is a state university).
22 u.s. veteran suicides per day
None, sad.
no. thats what set everything off.
ITT OPs
They recruit from my state campus too. I talked to several as well as the people who build and maintain ships for the navy and similar shit. I'm just bummed I wasted so much youth in exchange for money for a future no becky wants with me I never even really liked my major that much in the first place.
I might still join but being an officer just seems more like a desk job than anything, I might just do the nat guard instead.
Did you fight during the Gulf War?
I have a GED and two violent felonies but I'm making $70K a year working a real job that isn't a glorified welfare you dumb faggot.
>The Taliban doesn’t wake up in the morning thinking they are the ‘baddies’
no shit dumbass. you watched too much netflix. just because someone isn't self aware doesn't make them "not bad"
>He also drinks all day too but he lies a lot.
He drinks because life is absolute hell in the military. They drink to alleviate the boredom of life.
Also I really get mad when people bitch and moan about how hard it is to be poor in america. You're a lazy fuck if you can't get a stupid job in the navy or some shit. Like if you are healthy and can't do 30 pushups in 2 minutes its your fault not theirs.
I know a coastie who just cleans and drives boats around all day and recently baught a house.
The army can help you with any career it seems. I might join since it seems better than taking out loans.
I started infantry but after 3 years reclassed to a Blackhawk mechanic. Free schooling on working on rotary wing aircraft? Dont mind if I do.
Might be hard for you to understand, but the point is that there is no good or bad...only winners, and losers...
Not sure what Netflix has to do with any of that?!
>I will be getting fed, housed, medical insurance, BAH, free college for me and my kids
Correction: future generations who actually produce things of value will suffer inflationary costs to make-up for the imaginary money you enjoy today.
I heard they are finicky with paying for your education, but the people i hear it from arent very smart so take it for what its worth. loans are bad but my school costs next to nothing for me from scholarships. I just really dont care for the work and dont have any friends here because its either neolib, weebs, or barstool fans. I get along best with foreign and older students. They arent all bad but 90% fall into one of those categories I just said.
/thread
>i just wanna consoom
jew academia, jew loans, jew job, redeem yourself and use your martial knowledge for training/fighting for the cause
It's fun, but a huge waste of time. GI bill is great though
Lol who cares about you though
I’m in the Army, and I think I got a pretty sweet deal, I have a cushy mos I get a good salary with literally 0 living expenses and Im already halfway done with my contract, in 2 years I’ll be in college finishing up my bachelors degree with no debt and some money to my name
We gotta protect the jews, because of jesus and the 2nd coming ya know.
did you like sharing a chamber every night with a gang of masturbating sailors?
So you live off the money the government steals from us working folks and we're the losers? I hope they deploy your ass soon. Preferably in iran or China.
I regret the jobs I picked but not some of the people I've met. Never deployed but even when I was supposed to I would have been doing jack shit to begin with since my term was about to be up.
I'd root for Iran. I'm Iranian myself.
Currently serving. I don't give a shit what the wars are about, I work in a laboratory while my school is paid for. It's an easy way to coast through life if you can put up with the bullshit.
why would you do that
We don't have a military per se since we are neutral and some other bullshit, but this is just political nonsense. The "Security" forces of my country are as hardly trained as any other units in the world. We don't have the numbers but we focus on quality.
All that being said, you gotta deal with total retards on a daily basis and most of the time you can't say shit about it since everybody has a higher hierarchy of some sort except you.
Still no regrets, it helped me escalate a little in my life and I can say I was well trained. I might not know gorilla warfare or some other fancy shit but I know my way with a gun and that's far more than 80% of my countrymen will ever know.
I was woke to what the wars were really about before I joined. I'm not some retard who joined "for a cause". Anyone who joins any military for reasons like that is a fucking idiot. I'm like any intelligent person: I joined for the personal benefits. Easy job, social status, free college degree, pretty uniform to impress girls with, leaving my shitty hometown, combat pay, learning about life through a microcosm of it, being hardened from stress, etc. I don't regret it. I shudder to think where I'd be if I hadn't joined. The military is the last rites of passage into manhood that the western world has (aside from frats, maybe), and going to war is a man's birthright. I'm glad I got mine in. I feel bad for all the tacticool painballers, gun fetishists, and revolutionary/militia/boogaloo LARPers. They're all so transparent. Boys trying to be men. I got to do the real thing, and it's out of my system. As for the third question, the service made me more conservative. I was liberal going in, but dealing with freeloaders, lazy asses, worthless niggers, powertripping middle-management, etc., I became much more of a keep-your-hands-off-my-shit, earn-your-own-way type person.
I'm the Iranian Jarmen Kel.
>join military 4 years ago
>have spent the entire 4 years either training or waiting around for more training because I picked the least brainlet trade
>just as I'm about to get fully qualified and be able to start my job for real, pandemic happens and now I'm just being told to stay at home
>4 years in and I haven't done anything cool, just paperwork, homework, and bitchwork
Should've signed up to die for israel.
Damn. I’m pretty oaky with school. I manage to maintain a 3.0 or higher in general. Army seems to have a form of brotherhood especially when people serve together.
I'm a warrior god damn it!!
Are you an Afro Panamanian? those gals are sultry arent they?
Well you did fly over an ocean, bomb their entire region back 1000 years, destroy their infrastructure, murder thousands of innocent people and killed anyone that resists /called them terrorists... I'd say there's bad guys there, you just don't see it cause the USA can do no wrong. But at least you kept the petrodollars strong, got gibs and kept isreal safe. Good job American heroes.
Thanks for the funding. You're doing your part.
He might be a NEET. if he were wise he would be a NEET. get those autism bux fellas.
fucking zogbot
I wasnt popular in highschool either but i had more free time to go on nature walks and wasnt stuck in a big city. Also highschool was full of wacky people so that mad it more bearable, teachers were nicer too.
I realize now that the purpose of American wars is to serve the military industrial complex.
>We weren't there to free anyone from oppression.
Saddam was actually the best leader for Iraq. He was the only guy crazy enough to maintain the balance of power there. Those people are literal niggers. They hate each other and want nothing more than to kill each other. They don't give a shit about voting or democracy. The only thing they respect is violence. Saddam provided that threat of violence and that was how he was able to maintain any semblance of order. Once we killed him the country really took a nosedive. Looting. Riots. Sectarian violence. It turned into a fucking free for all.
>We weren't there to exact revenge for 9/11.
Every shot we took required an after action review by some kike officer to determine if the shooting was justified or if we were about to spend the next 10 years in prison. If it was for vengeance, they would let us do whatever the fuck we wanted.
>We weren't even there for oil.
Go look up who actually bought those oil rights. Spoiler it wasn't American companies. Not even EU companies wanted anything to do with it. Russia and China bought most of the oil rights in Iraq.
The whole reason we were there is so that Dick Cheney and his hunting buddies could bill the US for $25 a plate food for troops, vests, uparmor humvees, helicopters, missiles, artillery rounds, jets, trailers, mess halls, construction projects, satellite phones, ect.
I'd play the jew in that war and root for both sides to lose, while selling both sides weapons and shit.
Sounds like nigger behavior to me. If he were wise, he'd kill himself and take some kikes with him.
1 No regrets.
2 Don't really care about the wars we fight on, thanks to it they can't defund more our military.
3 I'm more confident about our army and his political orientation.
The bad guys are the people in charge of the Afghan government. All those warlords are shit. Most Afghans have more positive things to say about the Soviets than the US cause before 1992, Afghanistan use to have a somewhat decent government and army. The old afghan army outshines the current one. Once the Afghan warlords took over kabul, they destroyed what the soviets left behind.
So you don’t know shit...Taliban is Afghanistan, we built their ring road. We couldn’t bomb them back 1000 years because they are 5000 years behind.
Iraq was not exactly the same but Tampa was compete as I left if you care about their infrastructure?!
Winning makes you the good guy, and no one is innocent in war.
Same. I went to a small high school but i miss the atmosphere of doing small stiff like using a phone when i am not supposed to or all the funny shit that would happen.
No, I don’t regret joining the military, but I was in an accident in training with a helo, wrecked my back and my legs. Command didn’t give a fuck, I didn’t get any of the training on how to wear a suit, they just denied me my extension after ten years and sent me on my way. If I had to describe myself now it would be ‘listless’.
Not like I have a choice. I chose to actually work for a living rather than suck the government tit, which it just steals from average workers anyhow. Meh. Got multiple vehicles, guns, a home aminals, and I earned it , it's not redistributed gibs.
No. I'm a whitoid mutt of sorts. I'm "pale" for most of the niggers in the country though, which has given my a lot of shit from them.
Also, I wouldn't touch a sheboom even with a 10-foot pole.
Based, we had busing at my school so all the gang folks would do dumb shit like destroy toilets with rocks or fight. Now the crazy people in college just yell at you for not being a commie
Hey I did the same thing staying home for college to save rent money. It happens.
The only jackasses who glorify the military are those who have never served.
I served in Iraq; we did evil things.
War is awful.
Sure there are benefits to being in the military--I don't. think they're worth the costs though.
