villain Posted February 12, 2004 Share Posted February 12, 2004 First things first I want to give some advice to websterUno for his cuz. You better make sure he is equipped cause we got the most troops deployed since WW!! and there is not enough equipment going around. Especially flak jackets. I hear that some families are buying thier soldiers flak jackets. Besides you can probably find some better ones. I can link you up with dependable vendors and distributers if need be. The trauma plate in the vests our troops got out there will only take a single round from a 7.62 ak before it shatters so be warned... not only that but the rest of the vest, the kevlar has been known to punch through and even still manage to clear through the body AND punch out the back. AKs have some mad crazy stopping power if you don't know. I've shot through several logs in a row with them. I've even heard one story about a round piercing a kevlar helmet. This one guy down the hall had three rounds punch his vest and out the back. His roomate had a bullet spin around INSIDE his helmet and then take out his eye. I could go on and on... So make sure you get him a damn good vest. Military is supposed to have the best but often times it is shit. They are not even using "cop killer" rounds. I've seen some of them that people have been hit with and I haven't seen any seriously gorey exit wounds so that is my conclusion. Imagine if they were though. That is fucked up an ak can do that without even a cop killer round. So we can be thankful that noone taught them how to make cop killer rounds. Umm... what else was I going to address. Oh hey, by the way caL I'm a 52d too. Haha... good luck at Aberdeen, it's tough. It's alot easier than it used to be however. Yeah join the military to serve your country or make a better life for yourself. That's about all you can get out of it. Seeing the world yeah, if you don't mind seeing it from your rear to front sight posts. Gotta remember that americans are not too popular outside our own country. Especially in uniform. I remember when bush bombed iraq after he got elected... thanks for reminding me theo (it just shows how much corruption there is in this administration when I forget shit like this)... it was like some kind of sick fourth of july celebration for him. But if you feel like you don't need to join the military then don't. It fucking sucks ridiculously. I was homeless and jobless so I had no choice. Moving all the time, never knowing what kind of shit your going to wind up in next, what kind of fuck ups you'll be stuck with. There are alot of criminals in the military in case you don't know. "go to war or go to jail" judges love that stuff. Undercover homos.... everyfuckingthing under the sun. Especially in infantry. If you HAVE to join the military go air force and go medical. That's where it's the coolest, most laid back, least amount of bullshit, least stress, best quality of life, and most pussy. You wouldn't believe how many guys think they absolutely can't go without sex, and the lengths they go to get it. The majority of women here in medical holding are here because of rape. And alot of motherfuckers get away with it. Not only that but many believe that all there is to do is drink so you can expect alot of craziness. Well that's it for now folks... Feel free to ask questions. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

villain Posted February 12, 2004 Share Posted February 12, 2004 Oh here's something I forgot to mention. If you think you are not going to Iraq, THINK AGAIN! I know of a nondeployable national guard unit that went... If you think you are going to be cool with the gear in the rear, THINK AGAIN, they took all the mos's in this unit and cross trained them as drivers and machine gunners. EVERYONE! There has even been talk among the top brass to have EVERYONE do a tour in Iraq. Soon as I get my orders I can expect to go... which sucks for me cause I will ETS in like a year and I might get extended out in Iraq.....

villain Posted February 12, 2004 Share Posted February 12, 2004 More stuff for websteruno: Tell your cuz to avoid smoke... that's what gulf war syndrome is... they finally told us within days AFTER invading iraq this time around. Smoking bunkers full of chemical weapons. I'm sure inhaling smoke from a DU armored tank is not good either. There is some kind of illness going around.... killing people... the name escapes me right now.... I've been seeing alot of guys coming back with sores lately. Looks like smallpox sort of. But that could be the vaccine. That shit is so highly contagious you can't even touch the spot where you get the shot. You will spread it badly. I got nasty stories on that too but I will spare you. Oh yeah.. And tell him not to buy the rolexes... they're fake. =) Gotta get your hustle on you know. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
suburbian bum Posted February 12, 2004 Share Posted February 12, 2004 I have a question. Do the majority of people deployed in Iraq agree with the war or are they mostly just putting up with it. Whats the general opinion on the war and the bush admin.? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WhAt_dA_fUcK Posted February 13, 2004 Author Share Posted February 13, 2004 to villian....what the fuck?!..you have no idea what your talkin about first of all every marine is issued flak and kevlar they are issued that as soon as they check into the unit second of all you do not realize the power of a 7.62 round im glad that our trauma plates can actually stop the round third of all a kevlar isnt ment to 'stop bullets' its ment for protection from fragmentation.... hesheandet: the file is too big i need to compress it...or convert file... s@t@n: can you still host the movie? if so i forgot ur damn email sorry websteruno: do you happen to know what regiment hes in...because there are 3 battalions per regiment and there are alot of regiments so it could be anyone....

villain Posted February 13, 2004 Share Posted February 13, 2004 Hey What Da Fuck, I was speaking on behalf of the army.... Not too many marines around here.... Most of the marines that came here were coming back from liberia... and of about 300 that went 150 came back with malaria... That's pretty fucked up. I thought they pulled out most of the marines in iraq. The army is deploying any and everyone they can to iraq with or without equipment. I think you are confused about the nature of kevlar though. Kevlar is designed to stop BALLISTICS not FRAGMENTATION. That is why you can stab someone in a bulletproof vest and kill them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
villain Posted February 13, 2004 Share Posted February 13, 2004 Oh and btw What Da Fuck, copkiller rounds ARE frag rounds and that is why they call them "copkillers". Where do people get their information from? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WhAt_dA_fUcK Posted February 13, 2004 Author Share Posted February 13, 2004 cop killers?.....didnt read into your post that much...haha...yea a couple of my buddies got malaria...8 months of light duty...well about marines into iraq...as of 1 week ago when we had a BC formation we are leaving again in june july time frame...and regards to kevlar its not ment to stop bullets im tellin you...otherwise the military got ripped off thinking they supposed to stop ballistics...ive seen the shit in pretty bad shape from only 2 7.62 rounds...

villain Posted February 13, 2004 Share Posted February 13, 2004 Yeah your right... there are better vests out there. I think the ones we use are supposed to stop 9mm and the trauma plate is supposed to stop up to a 7.62 .... Sorry to hear about your buddies. Malaria is a nasty disease...

WhAt_dA_fUcK Posted February 13, 2004 Author Share Posted February 13, 2004 with ours....without our plates were pretty much dead...doesnt stop anything except fragmentation....with the plates itll help out Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well noone is really too happy about it besides some of the crazies. Especially before the rotation, there was alot of open dissent towards bush. Eh, everyone pretty much hates being there but I think they try and see it like they are doing it for thier homes and families and such and such... And that's all they want to go back to. Most don't even want to think they are doing this for some oil conspiracy. We all just want to go home.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
