No, but guys, it's probably time to turn it up to 2. I don't think he's ready for levels 3-10, but 2 probably won't chase him off. We've already seen his grinder profile pics. He better hurry up and enlist before trump gets in. They may start making you joyfully motorboat a stripper at meps, just to make sure after January..
Mistake number one: Thanksgiving was yesterday , not today.
Mistake number two: Insulting the avg iq here and thinking yours is higher.
And don't make my post my IQ score just so that I can show that a person can technically be smart and stupid or more precisely, ignorant at the same time.Mistake number one: Thanksgiving was yesterday , not today.
Mistake number two: Insulting the avg iq here and thinking yours is higher.
Says the guy who lacks the balls to see a recruiter in person.
I can't believe people on here are entertaining this retard this long!!!!!!!!!!!

We aren’t entertaining him. We are entertaining ourselves and each other.
If OP really wants to stalk coyotes… there is this little school down in Artesia, NM!
Plus the green hat is really useful in social situations!!

Yeah, it's well below room temp, probably somewhere near pudding
And you think you’re going to be spending time with family on thanksgiving when you are an assassin for Uncle Sam.
Get used to these retards, they are your family now.
Pretty fucked up you chose not to spend the holiday with them.
By the way, we’re still waiting on pictures of Mom
I think cornbread and coyote just seem right.
I might be biased though, since cornbread stuffing is greater than all other options.
Sniper school is 98% powerlifting. Work on your bench and avoid too much cardio which will eat into your gains.
I thought it was powerlifting and beer drinking.
I can always look at my join date on this forum and know when I went to sniper school. I was laying on my belly in the hallway of the barracks building they had us in on, being paid to do someone else's CQ and playing on my laptop, and I was searching something with the word "sniper" in it, and the hide came up in the search results. I thought, well, I'll have my B4 next week, so I'm sure this is the place for me. Then I basically forgot that it existed for more than a decade..
Meeting with the army recruiter tomorrow morning for 11x contract. I'm ready. But Im gonna get my bench up minimally. I agree my chesticles are weak. I would kill the ASVAB. I didn't even realize it but I spend a year studying hard for each section. Math, technical knowledge, writing, anatomy and physiology (not on test), grammar, etc etc. its like Gods hand was guiding me the entire time. Powerlifting when I was 17-19. Best deadlift was 405 for 1, I then started running a 10k a day for 1.5 years everyday didn't miss a single day cause I used David goggins as inspiration. Got more functional and useful strength.
Does your boyfriend know that you're leaving him for the Army yet?
He’s going to get a reverse dear John letter
Man, just on the off chance that you're actually real, I'm going to give you some advice:
1. Everything you just said is fucking stupid and it doesn't matter. Nobody cares. Please for the love of God, never repeat them.
2. I've seen guys get their green beret that were 150lbs and 5'4" tall. It's got less to do with physical ability than it does grit and determination. If you aren't the kind of person who refuses to quit, no matter what, when everything is stacked against you, and your odds of success are next to zero, then this isn't the path for you. I've seen division 1 college athletes, former NFL football players, and Olympic medalists quit in either selection or the Q, because you are not mentally or physically prepared for what is coming. You cant even imagine how deep you have to dig. If you aren't willing to die for it, you won't make it.
3. You absolutely have to be a likable person. If you're a dipshit, can't follow directions, can't pull your own weight in a team event, can't smile at someone you absolutely fucking loathe and work hand in hand with them, then you won't make it. It's not an individual sport, and just being unlikable will kill it.
4. If you're as undeservingly arrogant as you seem in these messages, you might as well join the coast guard. You have to be genuinely humble. I don't mean that you exude humility, I mean that you are insanely humble, coachable, teachable, willing to follow people enthusiastically that you're certain are less qualified than you are, then you won't make it.
5. I'm going to reiterate commitment. The pipeline from basic to ait, to airborne, all of the x-ray specific training, to selection, the Q, and on and on, with likely recycles and repeats and delays you can't imagine, you're looking at 3-4 years on a single path. If you dont want it more than you want oxygen, then it isn't for you. One single moment of weakness or doubt and you can pull the cord and walk away at any time you want, and it was all for nothing, then it's not for you.
The other thing is that an X-ray contract is fucking stupid, don't do it. Take an 11x contract with a guarantee for airborne school. You'll get an enlistment bonus. You can convert to the 11x program in basic or AIT. Then if you fail out of the 18X program, or quit, or whatever, you'll still have your 11X contract and bonus. You can sign for a shorter term, in case you realize early that you arent cut out for it..
If you fuck up anywhere in the 18X progression, even 3 years in, you get zero enlistment bonus and you get pitched out, needs of the Army (Probably going to Korea).

I see you’ve met @Dirty D
What @Hecouldgoalltheway said.
Plus, even after all of that, you could still fail some evolutions.
I watched the documentary in bud/S class 234 more than once. And one of the cadets did well enough in other parts of the selection. Then they dumped him in the ocean at the port. Had him swim a while and then do some basic math and he could not. His body was shutting him down. It was a case not just how bad he wanted it but whether or not the body could function and some guys just can't but you don't know until you get in it.

The US army has confirmed an aspect of surveillance whistleblower Edward Snowden's military service to the Guardian.
As Snowden told the Guardian in announcing his responsibility for detailing multiple mass surveillance efforts by the National Security Agency sweeping up Americans' communications data, he indeed tried to join the elite special forces.
His attempt was unsuccessful.
"His records indicate he enlisted in the army reserve as a special forces recruit (18X) on 7 May 2004 but was discharged 28 September 2004," the US army's chief civilian spokesman, George Wright, said by email on Monday. (In his Guardian interview, Snowden gave the year as 2003.)
"He did not complete any training or receive any awards," Wright added.
The army did not release Snowden's entire service record, a form known as a DD-214, despite the Guardian's request. A DD-214 typically details a military service member's entire career history, such as locations of his or her billets, job responsibilities and honorable or dishonorable discharges – none of which the army disclosed on Monday. Nor did the army explain the reason for Snowden's incomplete special forces recruitment.
Typically, so-called 18X candidates are approved to try out for a position in the army special forces, often after passing a vocational aptitude test, but selection to the elite cadre is never guaranteed. Training is a rigorous physical and mental challenge lasting 14 weeks.
The Guardian reported, citing Snowden, that his military career was cut short after "he broke both his legs in a training accident."
Thanks, I knew I would get it wrong. 18X, indeed.
It was fucking shin splints.
They need to hit that shit stain with a rod from God

Tim McVeigh washed out, too... .
That didn't end well.
Though it's possible that he had not had enough prep time after Desert Storm to make it through pre-selection...
Then given the copper handshake as part of the 'Peace Dividend.' He supposedly was a solid infantry soldier, though.

Good luck, you're going to need it, you arrogant prick.
You sure are going to learn a lot of things. . . . the hard way.
This is great advice and will amount to fuck-all to Mr. Coyote Assassin. He needs weed to combat his stress washing dishes or somesuch donchaknow
Didnt keep him out of being an ATF agent.
As seen in SOF magazine, in the pics and story on Waco debacle.
Stress cards were never a real thing. Everyone knew a friend who knew a guy who saw them. They never existed. I did a deep dive on them, and it's pretty evident that they never actually happened.
That was not bigfoot, that was me. Hold on while I dig that one out of my photo archives....
You beat me to it, just getting ready to say basically the same thing.
This has been my weekend for good timing.
Friday morning, I was hunting on public land managed by the USFS. I was right next to the barbed wire fence separating private property but I was on main trail.
The woods are so thick that the farthest shot you could possibly make was 50 - 60 yards.
I saw a deer and stopped in my tracks and muttered "shit..." as I tried to get my gun ready for off hand. But from what I could tell, it was a doe. And she was about to cross my path but I could not shoot.
She was still on private land. And to gun hunt a doe on the public parcel, you have to win a doe permit from USFS and I did not win one this year.
But I immediately dropped and settled. Where there is a doe, there is usually a buck sniffing her out. Sure enough, 30 minutes later, I could hear rustling and some scraping but it was far enough away that I chalked it up to lucky scouting and data for next time.
And then this joke I made.
So, Happy Thankgiving for me.
The army is lucky that they never put me on recruiting duty. I don't even know how exactly I would have punished them for that assignment, but given enough time, I would have easily made the front page of the Army Times.
Hey, man....nothing wrong with chicken legs.
When I was about 30, I was almost as fit as I ever was...which was when I was between 35 and 40...I was working as a carpenter foreman and up on a roof we were decking. My boss arrives, payday, gets out of his truck and yells..
"Hey! Aftermath! Are those your legs or are you riding a chicken?"
