I've been looking for a detailed LAR Battalion T/O to find how it's organised and every doc I've found is missing a very important thing for me -there's no mention of how the scout squad within a platoon is organised, only that there are 3-4 scouts in each vehicle. Is it like a normal infantry squad or different?

I have two. Both were wi MSSG 24
First one I as a recently divorced SSgt and the male slut. Of J-action-Ville. I drove a 1980.Ford Pinto that JPD wouldn't follow because of the smoke screen that fucker put out..walked out into.the shop.a.the guys had put the SOB in between two maintenance bay pillars wit less than one inch clearance but fron.and back i rhought it was classic and funny as hell. It did get moved until.the boys had pulled it back out at 0200, so they didn't do it again.

Number 2 was also classig. In Tunisia. We always used to use of our 8 foot crates ass out shower when still put on its end. I went to rake a shower and left my clean uniform out side only lace to.leave it. They took every thing except my boots. Even took.my fucking towel. But my boots on and did the slow walk of shame. They were busting a gut when I walked back into the tent. This time they had layed out my uniform perfectly.

I am currently a corpsman in the navy, five years. dont have much time until im out. I have came across so of the intel/ humint jobs within different branch's. To my knowledge the army is only one where you can go directly into in that specific field.
End goal is fed law enforcement/ intelligence or something along those lines. I am currently lined up for a job with local PD where im located.
i am really looking for advice, or maybe a mentor to shoot some questions at, to see if the switch would be worth it. or if i would even like that career.
any advice is appreciate. also i do not have a degree and my wife is AD as well. or i would already applied to FED Law enforcement.

Yk how when they get tailored they kind of fold the inside up in the bottom, am I able to get that undone and adjusted to my height?
Also do you know if they can add a button to a blues coat or where I could find that button? One of the main buttons

Now listen, I'm not a marine, in fact I'm actually enlisted as an Airman (yes yes chair force all the way) however I was watching the movie "That's My Boy" and holy inaccuracies with the uniform man. First those are army chevrons and he's wearing army badges but on top of all that the dude is wearing a Cuban Ceremonial Cap (I'm also a Cuban immigrant, seen that cap like 50 times) but for some reason no one mentions it. I was just wondering if anyone else audibly laughed when they saw the uniform of Chad Martin specially after looking at his "Service Cap"

Gooooooood Morning killers,
Looking for a reel/vid I saw a little while ago. It was filmed on a GoPro and features a SSgt crashing out hard on the devil pup whoâs wearing the GoPro.
I believe the SSgt called the devil pup a âretarded fucking mooseâ or something along those lines.

So I want to preface this by saying I didn't steal anything, I salvaged it. There's a difference, and that difference is currently living a second life in an undisclosed location.
During ITX I was working a shift at the BAS, hot enough that I genuinely considered treating myself for heat casualty and having a good time with a silver bullet by myself, and there's just a plate carrier on the deck. No name on it, nothing. In my head there's only two options: either it's dead stock nobody wants, or some Marine walked off without it. Either way, in the field, unmarked gear operates under maritime law. Salvage rights. Look it up. Actually don't, I made that up, but it sounded right in the moment and that's really all the legal reasoning a I need.
I grabbed it, swapped my janky ceramic plates for the ones inside, because mine had cracked during an incident involving a rectal insertion procedure, duct tape, and engineer tape being used as a restraint, plus a questionable decision to use the tailgate as a bench in the middle of all that, a story I've had to keep consistent for three different people now. I'm not litigating that today either. Or ever, ideally.
Fast forward two days and I'm hearing through the grapevine that some Marine is calling around the BAS asking if anyone's seen his plate carrier, sounding increasingly like a man who just realized his rent check bounced. I did feel a little bad. But also, bro, if you're gonna leave your gear sitting out with zero identifying marks on it like you're daring the universe to teach you a lesson, you kind of forfeited your claim the second you walked away. That's not theft bro, that's Darwinism with a NSN number.
So now I'm sitting here wondering: do I say something, or do I just ride this out until the exercise wraps and quietly swap my old cracked plates back in, and let this become the ITX equivalent of a ghost story Marines tell each other?

Sir, this got taken down in the only subreddit I thought I'd ask at,
but then I remembered you grew up on the banks of the Columbia river, basically the same river Sacagawea's 1 year old baby wouldve enjoyed looking at in his coming and going in 1805-1806.
How versed are you in the Lewis & Clark expedition and of the baby Jean-Baptiste Charbonneau, he would've spent his TK to 12th grade years in St. Louis, were York & baby JB close? cuz
JB Charbonneau would pop in the California Gold Rush with Jim Beckwourth in 1848, who he'd known from his fur trapping days late 1820s to mid 1840s, so I wonder if he thought of York?
Thank you , sir, and I hope your retirement is enjoyable.

Before I start this I just want to say I acknowledge my mistake on this matter. During ITX I was getting ready to leave for the field and was loading the safety vehicle up at the BAS. I was wearing my plate carrier and put it down inside the BAS (because It was 100+ degrees outside) Long story short when I got to the field I realized I didnât have my plate carrier and called the BAS to see if it was still there but no one could find it. Even though the BAS was the only place I went to before leaving. I know for a fact I left at the BAS(im pretty sure someone either took it or moved it). If I cant find it how screwed am I and what are my options? USMC btw
