11Boo recalls fictional drill Sgt- Is Drill Sgt on Nadin's resume'?

[Freeper]

I don't think anyone has ever believed that DUmmy numbersBoo was actually in combat.

He's as phony a soldier as TomInTib, DUmoTex and homo Bradley Manning.

And the crazy bald dwarf has really outdone herself claiming to have been a drill instructor.

Nutcase nadin is two meters tall, at her standard of 60 centimeters per meter.

In real height, that comes in at right about four feet even.  Four feet!

She was never in a military organization, unless there was an army in the Land of Oz.

Maybe she is remembering past lives, she isn't old enough for all the stories she has.

I went to basic 1996.  I remember when we had a DI come "sneaking" down the hall one night towards the fireguards and asked us information at about 2300, he stopped and asked us a few questions before sneaking up to the female's floor.  About the time he got to the top I heard "thump, BOOM!" from the ceiling.  A few minutes later, he came down holding his back.  He commented that the girls had set an ambush for him by setting floor polish down.

Was the word "boot" used to describe recruits?

Nope, we were either "Privates", which meant civilian pukes not really fit to wear a uniform or in the case of one DI that really didn't care for that sort of language, "Young Soldiers".  They did not touch us, for that matter they did not curse at us.  I think the "no cursing" thing actually upset some of the "young soldiers" I was with more than getting a beat down from a DI would have.  I asked a DI about it at while cleaning my rifle at a range about six weeks in and was told that we had so much training that needed to get done that things like cursing or striking with the brim of the campaign hat were considered to be counter-productive so they didn't do it.

Cold Steel
Ist platoon leading the way
2nd platoon get out of the way
3rd platoon coming through
4th platoon the best platoon

Ours started like yours, but ended like the above.

I'll ask our Army Veterans of the period (1970).

Was the word "boot" used to describe recruits? It wasn't part of the Army's language in 1980.

Sounds like sailor talk to me  

1970 here and we didn't use it at Ft. Knox. I (We) used Basic.

Damn. Another Marine SEAL in the Green Berets

[Vagabond]

Any doggies here use the pugil sticks in Basic?  Marines I know did, don't know about Army.

Yes, at Fort Jackson in 1996.

I should have been more clear. You didn't refer to Basic Trainees as "boots", did you? That was not part of our language in 1980.

[Freeper]

My drill SGT called us Rambo, he called the females Rambettes. At the end of basic he said that he was glad to be getting rid of all these faggots and that the next cycle was going to be a platoon full of dykes.

No we didn't.

[Big Dog]

No we didn't.

That's what I thought. Thanks!

11Bolo is full of shit.

[Rebel]

Lurking DUmbasses, I'm calling 11 Bravo out. He's a

He's welcome to come here, unlike DU, AS himself, and explain it. If he EVER went to boot at Benning, I can find his name. My guess is, if he EVER did, he washed out. There is no way in HELL he EVER did what he said he did, much like another fruitcake by the name of TominTib.

Are those Pugil Sticks anything like Numchucks ???

Far as Doctor Ruth goes, she was a Holocaust Survivor or her family was.  

Mom was quite amazed when she visited Israel to see these little kids running about with weapons.   Some younger then MY grand children.    She came home and said that NO ONE can take down Israel as it will be the Children that fight the war, kids are fearless as we know.

[Big Dog]

Uh, wouldn't the Mexican army, even if it allowed females, have some, uh, altitude requirements, like that one has to be at least such-and-such so tall?

The Israeli Defense Forces, to which nadin one alleged to have belonged (but she doesn't mention it any more) of course allow women, but one wonders if they too might not have minimal vertical standards.

So, nads is trilingual- pidgin Spanish, pidgin English, and pidgin Hebrew?

[Rebel]

We used pugil sticks in the army. Vesta, damn, no they're not like nunchucks.

That's right.
Nunchucks are the Converse sneakers Mother Teresa used to wear.

[EagleKeeper]

Vesta

They are like broom sticks with big boxing gloves on either end.

I was going to say that. He claimed to be on Hill 937 in 1970 when in fact that happened in 1969 and now claims he was in Boot in 70 at Ft Bragg? How did he get from the 101st to the 82nd Airborne? I might be wrong but I do not think they ever had boot camp at Ft Bragg.

They did.  I looked it up.  Four years 1966-70.

He'd have to have been in one of the last classes runthrough there.

Assuming he went at all.

We did at Sill in '92.

[diesel driver]

Whoops.  He dun ****ed up.

But as for the joke--when Senior Chief Nelson was replaced, we were "introduced" to his replacement (we had just finished Service Week, about halfway through boot camp.)  We got the usual speech, how nothing was changing, you better not slack, etc., and then he finished up with a question that in retrospect, he shouldn't have asked when he said, "Now alright...who has a ****in joke?"

I raised my hand and said, "Yes, I do, sir!"  To which I was told to spit it out.

To borrow the phrase from Ron White, I had the right to remain silent, but I didn't have the ability.

I said, "Sir!  If you woke up one morning in the woods, your hands were tied behind you and your ass was smeared with Vaseline, would you tell anyone?"

To which he immediately replies, "**** NO!"

And my just as quick (and yeah, I was pretty committed by this point) reply, "You wanna go camping next weekend?"

Dead. ****ing. SILENCE. For about three seconds.  Then EVERYONE busted up.  Tears on the other CC's (Senior Chief Benware) face.  In fact, for the rest of our time at RTC Great Lakes, he'd go up to random people in our sister company and go, "You wanna go camping this weekend?"

Yeah, Bravo--I did it.  **** you.

To quote another Southern humorist, the late Lewis Grizzard:

"Damn, brother!  Don't believe I'd told that!"

In '79 at Ft. Jackson we didn't use pugil sticks.  The DS called us 'bricks' most of the time.  I can't remember him calling us anything else except by our last names.

Was Nads claim to be a DI for her stint with Cruz Roja (MX Red Cross), with the MX Army or with this site http://cruz-roja.agame.me/ ?  I figure it's the latter.  She can make all the claims she wants and point to Cruz Roja which brings up the game site as well as the MX Red Cross on a search.

No one on this board can answer that question.

Her experience changes from day to day.

The MARINES install brains in brainless DUmmies.....

Parris Island January '65 while drilling on the parade deck. My redheaded Jr. Drill Instructor had an Obama son  recruit by his ears. He had pulled him up by the ears until only his toes were touching the ground. He was violently twisting his head from side to side and then he yelled, "I'm going to unscrew your head and shit in it so you'll have some brains."

 I busted out laughing because it looked like he was going to actually do it. That was a mistake. He threw the recruit down and started running through the ranks trying to find that "&%$* ^%$#* that thinks everything is so %$#@& funny?" No one would point me out so the whole platoon did rifle drill (up/over head/down in back ... up/overhead/down in front) with M-14's until there were some bloody ears in the platoon. No one ever pointed me out, thank god.

You know something, when I look at Obama's ears I can't help but wonder if he hasn't had the MARINE brain installation procedure.

so you know, getting physical like this is no longer allowed, not with ths all volunteer force.

I never did, but there were other creative ways to make the point.

At ease recruit. You just made me laugh hard. Yup, not only can see it, bit know what you mean.



On the bright side he did not really hurt you...there was a potential there.

Oh and Romney not only wants it...but feels entitled to it.

Her eyes must be brown because she is so full of shit

We used pugil sticks in Benning in '82 and my son had them at Leonard Wood just a few months ago.  He said it was optional though.

We were called by our roster numbers until the DS's learned our names (which you hoped they never did) then it was either just a last name called out or private so and so.

We had 2 DS's per platoon and 1 Drill Coporal per platoon.  They were on us like Tommy Hilfiger on a loser.

We had 2 Jr Drills (SSG) and 1 Sr Drill (SFC), who was an asshole. We were in a "starship" so we had to deal with everyone else's drills as well when we were out of our barracks.

Given that this is nads I'd say that pigeon-Spanish, pigeon-English, and pigeon-Hebrew are more likely.
