Had this fat boss, that had blown her way up from the secretary pool like 30 years ago. She did shit like that regularly. Has to do with getting dressed in the dark.

I was a 54 B my first go around. Chemical Operations Specialist. I spent a lot of time in mopp 4. Aside from how hot it was, it didn't really bug me. Except when I did live nerve agent, I had my mask cranked on so tight that after a few hours I thought my skull was going to collapse. Supremely uncomfortable but not a great time to be trying to make adjustments.
Seventeen hours is my record. Did get a 20 minute break after processing through the chemical containment area. Thankfully it was cooler weather.
Gee, why would you intentionally over-tighten your mask?
When I first enlisted, I knew a old Master Sergeant that had been NBC back in the 60s. He said in those days atropine was in a tube like morphine (think WWII). To pass the school, you had to inject your self with one loaded with saline. He said more than one guy made it to that point and dropped out.
When I did chemical school in the late 90's, 2 pam chloride and atropine were in a pressurized injection similar to an epipen.Gee, why would you intentionally over-tighten your mask?

Join the Air Force… So we had to wear full MOPP while doing exercises…. Bastards made us fill out reports using typewriters and two pencils… One of the only times I thought about offing one of my sergeants.Gee, why would you intentionally over-tighten your mask?

I can tell you that you never want to have to get hit with actual atropine. That’s an experience.
My understanding is they don’t use that anymore.
I do recall having to take chemical warfare training with the army and getting the crap yelled at me by a sergeant first class who is pissed off that I wouldn’t take my mask off. But I had been through this before and I was like “fuck that, i’m pretty sure my commanding officer will understand.” “I don’t have any leaks and I’m not inhaling any more CS gas…” purely a refresher for me…

Work in a highly secure chemical weapons facility and we'll talk.
You ever work in a facility with 4 ft thick doors and snipers on duty? I have.
The pissing contest is in another forum
Oh, we're having a dick measuring contest in the motivational thread, yay!
I did two 5-year short tours in Korea, and spent months working outside the wire in Afcrapistan...I'm hardcore like that.

Big deal. I logged thousands of miles on Korean expressways.
I did too. I also logged tens of thousands on my Harley on the non-expressway roads in Korea.
I married a Korean...25 years and counting.
One order of yaki mondu one Pepsi one moon pie for 1 MRE…..
Nope. Took me about two miles to decide I would have never ridden a bike in Korea.
Just have to get away from "town" and stay the fuck out of Seoul. Riding in the mountains on the east side of the country, and even the "flat" roads south of Pyongtek was all good. Kind of glad riding a scooter on the expressways was illegal, the way they drive on those is sketchy at best.
We did a 4th of July "Around the Penn" ride, four days 1,009 miles...rained all but half of day 3. Seven bikes, 12 people including 4 wives (not mine, she hates the scooter), and one guy following in a pickup.
I was in the 51FW, 51CS, I ran the antenna shop, we had sites all over the country. Even went to Pangyang Do, the island north east of Inchon, where you can look south and see North Korea...got stuck there for an extra two weeks because a couple typhoons rolled in and kept the ferry boat from coming back to move people/vehicles/etc back to the Penn.
Seoul, what a crazy place to drive. Or not.
I had a Korean Drivers license but as an expat my employer strongly discouraged/banned the few of us from driving in Seoul due to their “unlimited liability“ laws and unique style.
I had taken the State Dept’s “Offensively Defensive Driving “ course while living in Riyadh so I apparently pissed off a lot of Korean drivers in Seoul when putting that training to use.
In retrospect, Koreans were pretty tame (other than the crowding) when it came to driving compared to the Middle East.

There is a Seinfeld "Comedians in cars getting coffee" with the hardtop in your other picture. It was an interesting discussion about it and just how raw and crude much of it was.
