Just a cartoon military public affairs Panda. About as real as anything else you'll find in the news. Also, cute as fuck.
All views are my own, a panda.
For almost a year now my current Reserve unit has failed me. Sat on my ADOS orders until it was too late, forgot that I wasnt on ADOS orders, told me I was on my own to try and transfer units since my HOR changed ("Use IPPSA,"), and now told me why I wasnt getting paid.
@HauptmannHansa Wow, nostalgia kicking in. My introduction to Battletech novels was the Jade Falcon (trilogy?) that my dad had gotten me so long ago. Such a great story.
@ndkirschmann As much as I hated my time in High School, there is no denying the sense of nostalgia and longing I have for the days where one of my biggest concerns was knowing what was the most popular MTV music video at the time.
My favorite part was when my BC tried to get an emotional rise out of me during a final one on one, so that he would have an excuse to give me a negative report. I'm just looking at him thinking, "dude's trying to get me to hit him."
The only less than stellar OER I received was during my command time at 4th ID. Because I chose to make sure my Soldiers went home at decent times, did what I could to raise moral, and questioned unlawful orders. My career took a hit, but I could sleep soundly at night.
