Speaking of Goggins specifically he’s a great athlete no one can take that from him. But he only deployed once and has almost zero combat time.

I knew reservist cooks with more trigger time than him.

Homie also failed Delta Force selection twice and Seal Team 6 selection once and not invited back.

It seems like homie wanted the title more than the job.

Goggins is the perfect for corporate cash cow. He has the title, the story, and the look.

I wouldn’t want him in my unit because I don’t like doing PT and he seems like the guy who would do a 5 mile battalion run on a Friday before a holiday.

Part of good leadership is more than exercising and motivation. It’s a part of it. Not all.

Frankly I don’t know any unit that doesn’t do at least a 5 mile airborne shuffle “fun run” as part of payday activites on a four day.

What unit was you in? I was in the 82nd then the 112th then group ( non tabbed)

Breh when they all turned and without talking started aggressive action I just froze like a Deer in some headlights.

I was just resigned to the fact that I was about to get murked :mjcry:

I was ashamed later when I realized I had no fight in me during that situation. When that glass with the drink barely missed my head and the liquor from the glass sprayed in my eyes half blinding me.. and I saw the cac with the pool cue getting ready to throw and the Hispanic guy running at me full speed ..


I saw zero way out and was willing to take my beating :wow:

Yea, that’s standard. When I was at Riley in 1ID, the CG would let everyone get off early if the entire brigade finished running the hill and had zero fallouts in under 30 minutes. Used to put all them mf’s that couldn’t run to save their lives on road guard duty

You see these types of grifters in every modern society..... these dudes just banked off the fact that they could embellish/flat out lie about things to an audience seeking their own Tyler Durden
shyt, they don’t even have to be these types. One who I won’t blow up his spot be spitting that inspirational army talk with some religion sprinkled in and he set whenever he drops his paperwork. Use the grift to get chicks to slide them army issued panties to the side too.

Being a stan for the military when you haven't served has always seen off to me
Same but I always thought the same of women who did it too. Like bytch, you really wanna fukk with this guy who comes across is alpha but just a few yrs back, he was getting farted on in the elevator and dismissed? He ain’t what he seeming. And any guy who lusts after women in uniform is a simp of epic proportions. Mad bodies and expert lecher
