Hahn Posted May 18, 2010 Report Share Posted May 18, 2010 So im a Combat Medic in the OH Army National Guard and this past weekend (Thurs-Sun), we spent some time in the field at Camp Atterbury IN getting ready for our upcoming Deployment. Lucky for me, i got to go spend some time with our Snipers who were nice enough to let me get some trigger time on all 3 of their rifles. 1 of which being the Barrett 50cal sniper rifle. Let me tell you this much, that rifle will put some hair on your balls lol. I was like a kid in a candy shop the whole time i was out there shooting. Let me remind you that im a medic so we dont usually get to fire the big toys like that so it was great and i even hit the targets from 500m out. Not bad.

Hahn Posted May 18, 2010 Author Report Share Posted May 18, 2010 yea its not bad. theyre thinking of having us mob there but aint sure if its big enough for our unit size. and are u still serving? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scotty2Hotty Posted May 18, 2010 Report Share Posted May 18, 2010 Fuck Atterbury, I hope it burns. Training there is worthless in all accounts, minus Miskatatuk (How ever you spell it) I'm pretty sure you'll end up at Ft.Polk, LA for good ol' JRTC if you're going to Afghanistan. You in the 37th BCT? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hahn Posted May 18, 2010 Author Report Share Posted May 18, 2010 lol, iv heard that if we dont go to Atterburry then were prolly goin to Hood.

I'm currently with the 86th IBCT (Mountain) out of Vermont. I volunteered, got a slot with a heavy weapons company in Infantry land, then was told I'm goin with the cav scouts, then ended up in a PSD role. But in Ohio, I'm with the 811th Engineer Company (Sapper). I have a few guys from the 148th with me if you know a Sgt. Joyce (Think he was C Co.). Think I may end up over with you guys sometime. I used to be stationed @ Hood, but I've heard about the last mob through there. It's a great place if you're stationed there, but the rotating units coming in get shit on, for they're treated like leaches. Suck the post dry of gear, ranges, and barracks.

Since Ohio has barely shit for units, shit for training areas, and not to mention don't get shit for funding. It's a miracle any unit out of Ohio is able to deploy. Depending on a few job offers, I may have to do an out of state transfer to shake off my last year. I laughed @ the $10K/6 year re-enlistment bonus. I got $20K to re-enlist from being active duty, mistake on my part. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
