    With respect as a fellow veteran, the whole adventure thing is bull. Tell them what would happen if you went outside dressed like that or a neighbor saw you. The same people that told you how proud they were of you would have your freedom taken away because you make them nervous. They will continually detain you abusing state “red flag” laws until you leave the state. The veteran communities speaks for itself you see all the videos of veterans calling out others for stolen valor or shaming them because they asked for help. I’m proud of my service to this nation, I’ve done more than most people will do their entire life in a matter of four years, but I lost EVERYTHING. But I’d do it all over again 😂 Semper Fi

    MCRD San Diego was the safest place i had been to in my life up to that point in early 2000. The military is a better place to be than 90% of narcissistic, abusive families. I cherish my time that i had in my twenties actually doing things instead of owing some college to be in a racketeering scheme.

    Military service is good, but not today under the neocons and the ruling elite of today. Read Smeadley Butler's book he was on the money about how the military is often used and what the wars are usually about. My time in the Marines is the proudest thing I have ever done but I was somewhat blinded by my dreams of glory and honor.

      Nobody likes being the new guy. But in my experience the older guys were pushed towards lower leadership faster due to their age. I was 21 when I got to my unit which made me "pops". There are so many before you that have made the trip. First id say go officer if you're older and have a degree. Second, get your fitness in order it will make the transition much easier and you'll thank yourself when your 30th birthday comes around.

    You know bro, I'm a former US Paratrooper/medic from the mid and late 90s. I'm proud of my service. I used to think what we did was for freedom, I'm not so sure that is true anymore. Would I support any youngin going into the service? Yes. Would I talk them into it? No. I believe, serving this blood sucking leach government and bloated politician to get rich over their blood and sacrifice for their continued riches is nasty and immoral. I miss being a medic for grunts. It molded me into what I do now (paramedic for 25 years), I don't miss the Army fuck fuck games, I miss the dudes.

    I agree. nothing should be centrally located because of emergencies. I too helped clear roads and driveways. I kept everything charged with solar because we were without power for 9 days late that afternoon we got power. It was a relief to have it again. My generator didn't make the 9 days, because I wasn't prepared to run it that long yet. (Now I am ready for longer). My solar plan held up very well. I didn't run out of food or other wants. I had water. I didn't need to carry a rifle. I am armed CWP every day. I do something every day. Stagnancy kills the life in a mudpuddle.

    16 years of preparedness minded living here🙋🏼‍♂️ Yesssir went through all the phases: silver bug, buying guns, filling 5 gallon buckets (repurposed from my local donut shop) Even spent 6 years producing truth media on some noteworthy platforms. If there’s one piece of advice that I’ve come to believe applies to everyone it’s this: 86 the “prepper” nomenclature. Preppers oftentimes are suburbanites with minimal skills who have garages stacked to the rafters with plastic crates of-well, of pretty much everything. But they have only a vague idea of “bugging out” They know not where. Or with who. Or when. They most likely drive cars that are boat anchors if EMP/CME should strike. They own no paper maps and cannot navigate with a compass. The key is in my first sentence. PREPAREDNESS MINDED LIVING. It’s pursuing spiritual fitness. Physical fitness. Frugality while yet being generous to those in need. It’s eschewing the traps of “post modern” society. “Use it up, wear it out, make due or do without” as they said through WW2. It’s realizing that thoroughly scrubbed grocery jars with clean lids are perfect for dry storage. It’s realizing that “sure P-Touch labels look great, but at $18 per cartridge perhaps it’s better to use tape and a Sharpie while parlaying the savings into squirreling away another 10 pounds of sugar. Or 20 of salt.” It’s always being situationally aware and ready to defend life while simultaneously beseeching God for humility and love of fellow man. It’s gardening but being aware and strong enough to face the fact that a small backyard garden will neither feed a family of four nor is it able to be secured while everyone sleeps. It’s doing all that a man can to not be unequally yoked with a vexatious woman who is clueless what “partnership” means. It’s choosing work that actually produces something. Not merely bumping a cursor around on a light box. It’s nose-to-toes. Once a man learns these things he begins to walk the path of the warrior poet. The stoic who knows God is God of all. I pray the Lord chooses mercy on this nation in 4 days from today. If His will is the other direction my thoughts shared here this evening will likely become more immediate and profound. Our republic cannot continue on cruise control. It was never designed to. Best wishes and God bless those who read this.
