A world class budget?Prince_Ahmed said:Sounds like the finance unit gives themselves a pretty nice budgetTanker123 said:
I started my career in Helicopters and Tanks. When I took over a Finance Unit, I told them my vision is providing "World Class" support to the soldiers and community of Ft Riley. The soldiers accomplished that in a few months. I was so proud and pleased that I felt I needed to reward them in a "World Class" way. I did these things for the soldiers:
- When I told the MEDEVAC pilots I was in the 160th SOAR, it opened the door, and they agreed to give helicopter rides to soldiers.
- I had a hot breakfast and buses at the end point of a 4-mile run.
- The door prizes to the unit Christmas parties started with a big TV and a boombox. Stuff they wanted to win.
- I collected dinner certificates and gave them to the Section SGTs to pass down to their soldiers.
- I often made BBQ for the unit once a week after SGT's time. I am a good cook, so none of them went to the DFAC for lunch.
The morale was very high. It is easy being a leader of a unit with high morale. I loved the Army because it was a great leadership experiment. I felt compelled to thank the soldiers and incorporate some fun into their careers.
The Army was a Great Leadership Experiment

Yet you keep leaving and coming back
This thread is hillarious.

It's really amazing to see veterans who don't understand we all bleed one color. It's quite disappointing.
Veterans would never say this. And for that I give you this-
At no point in your rambling, incoherent response were you even close to anything that could be considered a rational thought. Everyone in this room is now dumber for having listened to it. I award you no points, and may God have mercy on your soul.
I posted some of the vitriolic responses on a national veteran's site. They are astonished and disappointed how some of you treat other veterans. Keep up the good work!
You troll TexAgs until people realize you're a ne'er-do-well and treat you accordingly, then you run elsewhere to play the victim card? That's very... on brand for you.Tanker123 said:

Wow.... what an amazing display of manhood and leadership and Army strength by literally running and seeking validation elsewhere for getting your feelings hurt here. Sorry if we are not taken in by your inane ramblings and incredibly egotistical rants to your perceived awesomeness and overall delusions of grandeur.Tanker123 said:

And trust me, none of us are bothered by this alleged 'disappointment' from this other unnamed site. Frankly, I am not even bothered by disappointment from THIS site.
Post a link to this "National Veteran's Site" you're posting on. FWIW veteran blogs are easy to find and for some reason there's not a single clerk or cook on any of them. Or even a finance officer.

Last time you had a temper tantrum, we were able to find your posts on other sites pretty easily. You were using the same username as you did on TexAgs, and we figured out your real name from those posts
So if anyone gave a crap, we could probably do it again
And before you whine that you are being doxxed, you were not and are not. Even though we know who you are, it hasn't been posted here or otherwise made public.
And would it really be doxxing if we linked to publicly available web sites where you openly gave out your name?
I will agree with others. You are not being treated poorly, you are just being called on your bulls**t. Being a veteran is no magic shield against having nonsense posts being ridiculed, or a protection from the backlash to your trolling. Most here know that I am not a veteran, but I know how my Aggie BQ buddies would be the first to call me out if I was whining online.
I am curious as to whether you linked to TexAgs when you "posted some of the vitriolic responses". Did you selectively edit, or did you let them see the entire exchange of posts and decide for themselves?
Maybe it was the fuel shortage in the early 1980s, but our battalion commander made the epic decision on our 6 mile run to go three miles out and three miles back. Saved on fuel. Then pastries, fruit, juice, milk and coffee at the mess hall. For some reason nobody craved hot breakfast at Ft. Bliss after a long run in September.Eliminatus said:
I mean, I was a jarhead, and a lower enlisted grunt as well. So super big dumdum across the board. But even we figured out that if you run two miles, and then about face and run two more apparently that is four. And we still had breakfast. And didn't **** over a motor T unit. Not that they would have anyways. Would have laughed the request straight into the trash can.
Took us a few 8-milers to get the math right down to 4 though. But we got there!
Absolute peak Army to go on a pt run to then be bussed back. Yall wild!
