Time to get creative

The desert is very hot,

I have no idea who's shooting me,

Let us nuke them all.

Is it a hateful passion?

There are many things that I love about this topic, the fact that i'll be doing basically what this topic is about, learning more about it, etc. Then there are some things that I hate. For example I hate that even though military people bust their butts for everything, there are these punk kids who think that it's cool to treat them with disrespect. There are also the people who try and make everyone believe that they were once in the military, when they were not. All of these kinds of people anger me. It's just something that I don't understand. Why do you even need to do this? This all just makes no sense to me. People do some pretty stupid stuff with their life, and this just happens to be one of those things.

Yet another SSR

This is another SSR that will be put on my blog here. My thoughts to this post are, well on the good side. When reading something about firefights, you can't help it, but from the beginning of it, your heart sinks a little bit. Just because you don't know how it's going to turn out and that possibly there is a loss of someone who is just trying to protect his country. In this blog that i'm responding to, there were casualties, sadly there was a loss of someone's life; that's not what this response is about. It's about what it's like to have responded to an attack and not have your squad mentioned, while others are, even though you are the first ones there. In my utmost opinion, I believe that they should have some recognition, but at the same time, they shouldn't. It's about being humble whether you are mentioned about something similar to this or not.

Here comes the poem

The people in the military,
The ones we respect and should fear,
Allowing us to sleep peacefully.

Dumba... SSR

This post has probably made me pretty angry. There are people who join the military for a job skill/college/career, etc. Then there's people who just join for the damn money, and just disrespectful to their brothers/sisters, and their flag. This girl is exactly the kind of people that I am talking about; they shouldn't be allowed to join or even be considered for the military due to their choices for joining are for all the wrong reasons. Personally this is a topic that has gotten me very mad! It's like why? How could you be so stupid to do that, let alone post it on instagram and let everyone see. There's going to be pissed off military personnel who will see this and will put her on blast, hopefully her platoon leader sees this and gives her hell!

Humor

Ssgt walks by and says, "I heard you like to party." You say "yes I do." He then says, "good thing the corps has a working party."

Found this joke on facebook.

Special Forces: US Army Rangers, written by: Reid Lewis

I’m writing as a guest blogger for Tyler Newman on his blog about the frontlines of war. When people think of the front lines of war the first thing that pops into their minds are infantry, tanks, and scout squads and not the Special Forces teams like Green Berets, Delta Force, Rangers, Marine Recon, or Navy SEAL teams. When in reality while the regular fighting forces do their jobs the Special Forces teams are conducting the more high danger things like rescue missions and sabotage missions during the day or night. The group I chose was the US Army Rangers. The reason is because a recent Humboldt recruiter Sergeant Carter from the US Amy. He was an Army Ranger and he supplied me the info about the Rangers and how they train and operate. Also what separates them from the other infantry squads like grunts and the airborne infantry that my recruiter Sergeant Banks does.The types of operation and jobs they do consist of levels of threats. Their jobs could be small as just training in spare time to going and fighting with the regular infantry or airborne infantry or even conducting night Intel missions. The Rangers training is broken into three phases and for more information click here.
