Sharing a glance with the SFC who is grilling the Ssgt about why he didn't bring any of the gear that was on the packing list.

He didn't bring a helmet

He didn't bring a water source

Doesn't understand why he needs mag pouches

Doesnt know where his IFAC is

#justvictorthings

Arguing that he doesn't need a water source because he "does fine in the heat."

This is the second time he's gone back home today to get gear.

First trip was for bedding

Started off the day with this STAFF SERGEANT not knowing how to assemble the chin strap on his helmet.

(Not sure why he didn't do it last night)

I managed to slice my hand while installing it for him (well done Russell)

We get to the lanes today and his hydration source is a sparkling blue coffee thermos with some sort of "live, laugh, love" calligraphy on it.

He was nice enough to offer to put my Monster in his cooler.

Well that sure was nice.

When I went to retrieve my tasty beverage I found that the cooler HAD NO ICE IN IT.

He just had my drink in a room temperature box.

His idea of staying hydrated while we are in full gear is to slam a LOT of Pepsi all day.

Now the training starts.

This guy...

This STAFF SERGEANT

Cannot low crawl

Cannot high crawl

Does not understand how to stay behind cover

Cannot operate a radio (like push the one button)

Cannot find the serial number on his weapon

Guys...

GUYS...

His inability to put on a gas mask was the saddest thing I have ever seen in my life (besides the episode of Fresh Prince where Will's dad leaves)

He spent all the down time during the training just muttering to himself about how his knee is bothering him.

Congratulations my man, you're in the Army, we all have shitty knees.

He didnt come to dinner chow because he had his own food.

His dinner consisted of a summer sausage...

AND THATS IT

He just peeled it and gnawed on it like a meat banana

Just holding this large, slimey chunk of meat

He spent his free time sitting on the edge of his bed just...

...

...

Staring into the middle distance

No phone, no book.

Just looking into the void like a fucking psychopath

This human being has no business in the Army.

Much less being a Non Commissioned Officer.

Also he didn't shave today

Goodnight everyone

Another day, another adventure in the world of the Army's strangest man.

He skipped the STX lane because of a knee injury (thank god)

But then we moved into PMI

Watching this man with a rifle was horrific

We needed to get mag pouches on his LBE.

He had no clue how Molle gear works. I showed him three times and he still could not figure it out.

Between not knowing how a carrier or a helmet works, WHAT HAS HE BEEN WEARING TO THE RANGE ALL THESE YEARS?

Then we start PMI (Just going through the motions)

He gets online and is confused because his TRAINING MAGAZINES DONT HAVE BULLETS IN THEM
