Sat on E8 boards this year, threw a fit until we gave points for deployments, non combat Bitches where crying. Exactly. And alot of other factors. I got booted off and 2 others in 327th I knew got booted off the 94 7 list. DA rescinded it and put out a revised list due to oversight on EO quotas I had a high sequence # like in the 600,s 95 made it with 26 for a sequence # 92 93 They had The SDT test every Nco in the army issued 3 common leadership manuals then ya had your own mos specific. Like 40 or 60% leadership common core and vice versa MOS specific. Trial practice test everybody Was a young single E6 in the barracks. Study while taking a dump in the morning. Read something and it is their for me basically. Got like a 92 on the practice. Next year was for record. 97. Great get a exc bullet related to that. Bout a 4 month period Ncoers were allowed those bullets. DA nullified the test. Races comprehend the common core leadership differently was the pretext... Uh huh... IE alot of mutha fugga,s bombed the test like Blutowski in animal house.... Got a no fault due soldier notice that nullified that Ncoer rating period for that year. Ncoer space ghosted ..... 1000,s of Nco,s had that nugget done to em. White out on hard copy and black out on fiche was too intensive for perscom fuuks to do.....

Gonna post some more pics over next couple of days. Keep the thread going. " pics or it never happened" sorta thing πππ JYD Junk yard dog. Alpha dog of the Mosul train station pack. Seen him one day before we started drawing him in with food. Take on 4 other dogs out by the tracks. He fuuuked up 2 and got a good peice of the other 2 before they hauled azz. We started taking about trying to make him a compound dog after seeing that go down. Took me and 2 of my philippino soldiers about 3 weeks to get him to stay in the compound and trust us. He warmed up to the whole platoon eventually. Dog would hole up all day inside our sleeping area on the cool marble floor and walk the 3 foot patrols at night with the squads. One sqd come in off patrol, JYD be all bouncy ready to with the next making his rounds for pets and sniffs. It was eerie with him on patrols. Dog would be 30 50 yds away from a sqd. Light up a Haji,a azz and thigh a couple of times. Give warning barks and growls. Take a security halt/ break JYD be out front and lay down just looking around.. We finally were able to give him a detailed dog bath about month 2 He is dirty in that dog bow pic we was giving him mini baths that he would tolerate at times. But he was absouloutly covered in rail grease when we 1st started working with him to get him to stay in the compound at 1st. We handed him off to the Stryker unit that replaced us during our 3 week overlap. Good dog.. Brave dog.. Loved dog.... ![[Linked Image from i.postimg.cc]](https://i.postimg.cc/yd2rSnQV/20221026-182550.jpg) ![[Linked Image from i.postimg.cc]](https://i.postimg.cc/gJxTJ1KS/20221026-182609.jpg) They sure treat dogs differently in the Middle East huh? We were told not to go near them and certainly not to feed them as they were feral, in Al Anbar at least. We were authorized to shoot them for a while in Fallujah because they ate dead bodies. I am a dog person and didn't want to but after seeing how nasty some of them were, I did shoot a couple. I considered it a mercy killing. They also were known to carry off the scraps after IEDs went off really close to people.

We shot dogs around king Faud airport and CampEagle II during desert sheild prior to desert storm. JYD came in the compound one day with a human jaw bone he found out in the execution fields behind the giant wheat factory by the train yard. Bunch of chasing him around the compound trying to get it from him. He dropped it by mistake One of my Joe's got and chucked it over the wall in the burn pit. The gate was locked . JYD over by it dog crying . π€£π€£π€£π€£

They also were known to carry off the scraps after IEDs went off really close to people. Watched a big ole pack of Black ferals at The Baghdad airport. Flushing the fields all kinda on line moving the desert gerbils towards another line of em working the opposite direction towards them. All types of killing and feeding going on when them 2 lines started merging Probably about 7 to 10 in each line. That was late april early may 03. Them dogs were more than likely shot off once Baghdad INT was gearing up again for AC ops.

Pardon my ignorance as I know nothing about the Air Force...are they allowed to wear that Screaming Eagle patch if they're attached to the 101st?

Pardon my ignorance as I know nothing about the Air Force...are they allowed to wear that Screaming Eagle patch if they're attached to the 101st? If the unit they were attached to allowed it, the Air Force Expeditionary Group that had admin control of the Airmen generally didn't object. For quite some time in Afghanistan the Air Force didn't have uniforms that were fire retardant other than flight suits, so they allowed Airmen attached to Army units (known then as Joint Expeditionary Tasking or JET Airmen) to wear Army issued combat uniforms. I knew of a group of Air Force EOD techs attached to a British Army unit that took to wearing Brit uniforms. That was frowned upon by Air Force leadership.

Thank you guys for your service. I am most appreciative of your sacrifices. With all that being said......I like my meatloaf smoked, and once I tried it I can't eat it any other way. ![[Linked Image from i.imgur.com]](https://i.imgur.com/7KhYQKE.jpg) Recipe, please?

Could be.
I dont know really.
Just kinda thought of him as a "desert husky" with his curled over the top of his back tail.
He was a good dog once we got him used to us.
Food was the key, one of my philippino soldiers was the 1st guy to get him to eat from his hand, and pet him briefly and not haul azz
That was the turning point.
Then came keeping him in the compound which took some time.
When ya got 38 to 45 people feeding ya and being nice to you it is pretty hard for a dog not to adapt to that.
