• (1) If your post could be answered by your NCO, Google or a 5 minute call with an Army Recruiter, then please do so.

• (2) Ensure your posts actually encourage discussion. No memes, low effort posts, reposts or crossposts from /r/all. If it is appropriate for /r/AdviceAnimals or any other meme or image macro subreddit, it is not appropriate for /r/army. Consider /r/armycirclejerk instead.

• (3) This is not a pro-military circlejerk, but please have some sources to base the more controversial topics on.

• (4) Use the search bar. It is very likely that whatever you are about to post has already been posted before. This includes questions about duty stations, MOSs, boots, or what to take to the field.

• (5) We don't all know what a 12V or a 35Q or a 94L is. Post the description along with your obscure MOS code.

• (6) Please keep your flair text rank or duty-related. The purpose of flair is so we know you have a background in a particular subject matter. Moderators reserve the right to change flair at will.

• (7) Source your posts well. No rumors, PNN or unfounded speculation. Links from USAWTFM, ASMDSS and similar at moderator discretion. No Stolen Valor.

• (8) N00b questions go in the Weekly Question Thread (or Recruiter Thread) stickied at the top, in the black-on-gold link at the top, and in the sidebar. Do not answer n00b questions on the main boards. Use the report button.

I used to know a kid like this.

We were only 9 years old but it was his ambition to be "the first soldier to die in WWIII".

One guy got a 23 on his ASVAB? The dumbest guy I ever knew got a 32 on that test. He literally fell down when you asked him to do a left or right face. They would bring people around to watch. There was another guy in the 30s who couldn't count and do jumping jacks at the same time. I could get an especially stupid grilled cheese a 30 on that test.

I'm a piece of work but you really seem like a piece of shit.

If anyone is looking for some flair.
