What is your happiest memory?

Post by: Rocco Rex on August 01, 2017, 04:10:34 AM
I'm horrible at picking a single top anything. Top three are when I was still new in the fandom and realized that for the first time I could remember, people were accepting me for who I was and willing to be friends, during my vacation the first night I was in the hotel and realized what total freedom was like, or when on the vacation I finally got to meet my fathfur (he's all but legally adopted me, she he's who I see as my real Dad)

Well I'm straight, so I'd have to say Air force  XP

What is your biggest regret?
Hmmmm. Again.
Taking so long to start to wake up and break out of all of dad's BS. I could even already be a Marine by now

Here is a fair warning.  Many times when folks come out of a situation that they feel imprisoned, they go out and do everything.  Not everything is good, so I hope you stay safe.

Anyway....

What city and country would you like to live in if given the choice?

I try to. I realized I have 0 experience in life, so that combines with my paranoia and slows me down in some areas
America. IDK what city. I haven't really experienced many different areas/people, so I don't even know what area. Maybe Montana

Why is Belgium the greatest country on earth?
Because America is so awesome it's a class of it's own

Always  keep searching. Never say never. Keep an open mind that you might be wrong

Being born. But realistically? It'd take waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay too long to think it out.

What is your political affiliation?
Title: Re: Rocco Rex AMA

Good question. I'd never pledge allegiance to any party. Of the two main? I lean more Republican.

Do you feel that you have a good grip on reality?

Not certain I get the question

Do you feel you are grounded in life?  That is the gist of it.
Title: Re: Rocco Rex AMA
Post by: Rocco Rex on August 01, 2017, 11:22:11 PM
Think I get it
Nope. I stay fairly fluid and able to adapt and don't make expectations for the most part. Life is too unstable to get comfortable

Why do marines get soo much hate from their supers?

Aren't they somewhat affraid that people just stop signing up, because "Apparantly they're not wanted"?

Not sure I understand the question

Well, what I mean is that marines are pretty much constantly treated like shit... You know, with drill sargeants constantly flaming you out, and stuff like that... But, why?

Or, is that just some Dutch stereotype, we've been taught somehow?
Title: Re: Rocco Rex AMA
Post by: Rocco Rex on September 03, 2017, 09:38:53 PM
I'll just say it's a Dutch stereotype, but that isn't fully right, so I'll try to explain it. IDK if anyone will read it, but oh well *shurg*

Drill sergeants/drill instructors are the people who train new recruits in bootcamp for all branches. Army and Marines have the harshest DSs/DIs, but Navy and Air Force still have some element of harshment. I'll use Marine DIs and bootcamp as an example because that's what I'm going to, though it is the most extreme example because the Marine bootcamp is the harshest.
The DIs literally break down the recruits, it's their job to. There is the occasional suicide in bootcamp it's so harsh. Pretty much every recruit cries at bootcamp. It's as close to hell as the DIs can make it. Why? Because war *is* hell, and that's what a Marine is trained for. War. The DIs break down the recruits, striping away their identity, their habits, their excuses, and through the pain of bootcamp, turns then into warriors, people ready, able, and trained to kill if needed. It isn't nice in the slightest, but it produces some of the finest warriors in the world.
Things get easier after bootcamp. Once you get to the fleet (when all your initial training is done), there are still standards, but you don't get treated like shit. You're not a recruit, you're a Marine.

Hope that helped

Was gone for a while and bootcamp changed me. Thought I might as well see if there was any interest in this

Whilst on bootcamp, what did you miss the most?
Title: Re: Rocco Rex AMA
Post by: Rocco Rex on January 11, 2018, 05:55:18 AM
Freedom. I couldn't be alone, couldn't go where I want, couldn't get online, etc.

what did you learn from this forum?
Title: Re: Rocco Rex AMA
Post by: Rocco Rex on January 11, 2018, 06:01:25 AM
An entirely different me.
Alot of social skills, more about myself, how to chill the heck out, and I'm sure I'm forgetting others
Title: Re: Rocco Rex AMA
Post by: Bricket on January 11, 2018, 06:01:54 AM

For some reason the post I made doesn't show, so I'm not shure if you got it, but yes, that explanaition about boot camp helped a lot, thanks! :P
