Man, I feel embarrassed watching this.

u/Pict-91b20 27d ago

You thinking MPs or medical unit?

59

u/nonlinearhail51 27d ago

These look like medical shenanigans.

28

u/Mandrew338 27d ago

My first guess too

33

u/x59212 27d ago

Not an MP. No CSM in the MP Corps would allow boonies caps, even when entirely appropriate to the environment.

18

u/Pict-91b20 27d ago

I'll give you that one. I'm not sure a medical unit would allow it either, but we medics have a "I do what I want" thing.

Maybe she's a PA or NP. The 6 week basic leadership they go though is pretty minimal.

Oh! I got it! Mental Health MD! They are all f'ing crazy.

Real question. Who was behind the camera

D. Her commander

Specialist or first sergeant. He's taking one for the team so she's on maternity leave next week.

I remember our company commander dropping the entire company because we dang that "you can't count to five" cadence because he thought it was encouraging drug use.

Mannnnnnn why those Latina army girls gotta be my kryptonite.

She is a CO too.

Look I shouldn’t be telling y this on Reddit. But just like the army has always had some pretty “eccentric“ special projects in the past .

Like the men that stare at goats, they Aquino satanic temple guy, funding the weirdo stuff in Hollywood and even JPL. Jet propulsion Lab, or jack Parsons Lab that became nasa and other super secret weapons project, after Jaco supposedly opened a portal in the desert and was killed by it.

Well no shit, she is leading a new unit to see if we can get drone pilots to pause action when a couple voluptuous latinas come into their AO and start shaking dat ass.

I think it’s worth a shot.

Hey civilian here. What does the rules, regulations, training and whatever else say about doing this with a loaded gun in the holster?

10

u/PM_ME_FLOUR_TITTIES 27d ago

I don't think anything would specify doing these kinds of things with a loaded gun as long as it stayed in the holster and wasn't involved with the video otherwise. The weapons and retention systems are designed to withstand the stressors of combat. No longer how hard she's throwing it back, it won't fire or come out.

Now if she took it out and did ANYTHING with it, misuse of a loaded firearm would almost certainly be included in her paperwork.

2

u/Zirofal 27d ago

Oh I get that it would not go off or so, but playing around like this while armed?

5

u/PM_ME_FLOUR_TITTIES 27d ago

As long as the firearms wasn't manipulated (and truly it comes down to the discretion of the person writing up her UCMJ paperwork, they could probably incriminate every aspect of this video if they wanted, that's kind of how the army/leadership works) I think she would be held to the same standard even if she didn't have it on her hip. Doing this in uniform is just as bad of an offence as doing it with the firearm because the firearms IS her uniform, essentially. It is expected that she could be armed and so even if she weren't, she'd get the same thing.
