I knew quite a few of those dudes and, well, lol

(it's extremely accurate)

This by the anonymous Ranger Instagram artist “@Barracks_Party” is darkly hilarious and fucked up, but also more complete history of the Ranger Regiment’s story arc in the GWOT 2001-2021 than anything the Army or SOCOM has put out. Hats off to him

That and SEALs. Never heard such an earful before

donachaidh.bsky.social•3 days ago

In my experience, Rangers despise SEALs

Then again I have a hard time with anyone who acts like god's gift to warfare who can't execute a basic react to contact drill myself

Did I ever tell the Presidential Unit Citation story On Here™

tathompsonks.bsky.social•3 days ago

Not that I recall. Lol

I didn't think I had, so anyways. Back in my early SWCS days we used to do Class A inspections, which were mostly an excuse for the cadre to sharpshoot and fuck with us.

For those who aren't aware, a Presidential Unit Citation is only worn by people in that unit (duh), but also you can wear it no matter where you go in your career if you were in the unit when it was awarded.

Anyways, we're doing an inspection and all of a sudden the TAC everyone hates the most blows up at someone. "A PRESIDENTIAL UNIT CITATION? WHAT THE FUCK DID SWCS EVER DO TO WIN A PRESIDENTIAL UNIT CITATION? WHY THE FUCK ARE YOU WEARING THAT, SERGEANT?!?" and so on and so forth
