Fort Drum
Fort Drum is the worst post I've been on ever. Don't get me wrong, I'm not discriminating but it is freakin boring here. Can't wait to get back to Campbell. Seriously, what do you people at Drum do for fun? Nothing? The bowling alley wasn't too bad. The food court in the px is awful. Awful. The food is awful, the service is awful and the people here stare alot. Like they've never seen a 101st patch before.
The CSM here didn't like us wearing our Patrol Caps. I guess they don't have a clue that Patrol Caps are worn when you are in a deployment status. By the way, we are here supporting their infantry guys with air support. They aren't too bad but they need more skills on their comms. For the past week they've been talking in the red while we've been talking in the green. So they need more work.

Do your time and come home....stop whining. At least your not out there in the front lines.....be thankful for at least something.
Oh and by the way....your "support".
And...your comment on the comm thing is exposing an achilles heel.....this is a public forum. Innocent lives may be lost.
Get with the program soldier.
peace
"Look peeps I am in the military and I am COOL"!
Now get back to that pot of mashed potates and swirl it with that big wooden spoon. Make sure those real soldiers who carry guns are fed so that they can protect your kitchen. YOU DA MAN.
GO SOLDIER!!!
13FOXTROT!! AWOOOO!!
I was there for two years bro, and never bitch once. Hang in there little one...C2 TOC, that sounds comfy.
OPTIMIST,
LOl@Watertown hippie, you missed them too huh?
Reject,
I was informed that you have been shooting blanks lately. I guess I was misinformed. Well bro, we will just double up patrols down your end just to keep the old Reject from resurfacing. Then again you know everything in the book. The new FNGs won't be able to call fire suport on your locaton. Missed the old days bro.
You're probably hanging out at the wrong places at the wrong time.
If you like watching NASCAR, Ko Kart race in Lefargeville on Friday nites and Poker Run (fast boats race) in Alexandria Bay on Saturday. These should keep you occupied for the weekend.
May I ask? How many Micronesians are stationed in Ft.Drum? I haven't met one ever since I moved to Upstate NY.
Thank you for your great service. If you need help with your Tricare Benefit, let me know.

"Climb To Glory" hooah!!!
Miss my home sweet home....
quit bitch'N.. you make it sound like campbell is even all that. LOL.
BOHICA... "smell it smell it... now take it" =)
You're in the U.S.A. for crying out loud.......the land of liberty and opportunities. Many of your comrades in arms are fighting a war in Afghanistan for the sake of freedom and you're complaing about the food selections at the food court? grow up and be a real soldier.
A soldier can complain ok? And there is nothing wrong with it at all…If a soldier not comfortable on where he is assigned to I don’t see why sharing thought a problem here. I mean….I myself I don’t like it in here (where I stationed) bcuz its sucks and I am the only islander in here (the whole fort)….ok ill take that back…maybe there’s other islanders here but I neva met one a them and I been here for 2 yrs…so stop pulling string outta this guy (one man) and just provide him some encouragement, maybe? Don’t get me wrong…I am man enough to cope up da boredom and all but it is better to have islanders live around u…
There's a big difference between Bitch'N and complaining. One Man is complaining/Bitch'N, pick one..about the food court in the PX. Bust open an MRE.. about the CSM didn't want this/that.. that's why he's the CSM.. so, i ask you..are you Bitch'N or comlaining because "You Are the ONLY ISLANDER There"?.. 2 yrs? They're out there, you just got to find them. Are you good in LandNav? ... or maybe, they're hiding from you =)
By the way, happy holidays and thank you for your service...
no bradda fights needed in here. allow them to ease out their minds a little. It seem your taking the wrong angle hea friend.... be a good bradda....as far as "NAVIGATION SKILLS".... bradda, I welcome any brother to pack their gears and come visit me up here in North Ga.
i agree, this is a good place to let it all out, but remember OPSEC. i think those with negative response are letting out steam too. i don't know yapese language so can't help with the coconut talk. hope you find someone soon to help ease your need to speak coconut. take care.
You make up your own Nav-Course? awww, you're playing army? okay, i'll be the tank =]
