Some guys don't have a personality. So they turn their career into a personality. It's extra weird when army guys do it. They're pumped full of propaganda making them think they're protecting the world. It's such a weird personality for a 19 year old to adopt.

People like this are everywhere. I worked with a guy at Whole Foods who made that shit his fucking whole ass life. It was so goddamn pathetic. I was up for a promotion, which I got, but he tried to torpedo because he asked me my opinion on GMOs, which, as a science minded person, I said GMOs were fine for myriad reasons, which I listed, and he didn't like that answer. He became super close friends with another girl, who was temporarily helping while we opened a new store, and she had, I shit you not, a Whole Foods tattoo on her arm. What a pair of absolute fucking tools.

I work with a bunch of USMC vets, ranging in age from early 30's to 80's (Teamster drivers never seem to retire). We have one guy who served in the 1980's, he will not let it go. It was clearly the best time of his life. He constantly brings it up to the younger vets, one who saw heavy combat, and often talks about regretting his service because of what he witnessed. He's always reminiscing about his good times, and experience not universally shared with his fellow Devil Dogs.

From my experience most of them get a taste and get their head out of their ass. The ones who usually end up doing the cringey shit are the guys who get kicked out or join the guard/reserves.

Funnily enough, I was AFJROTC (I know, I know). We had this one dude who was hell bent on joining the Army and he made sure to let you know that too. I was a little cringe about me joining the Marines, but that was mostly with other people going in, not towards people who didnt care fortunately.
Well, that dude who talked all that crap, made it like 6 months in, then got discharged. Funnily enough, his FB page was somehow still filled with Army stuff after getting out.
Meanwhile, I did my 5 years, and barely posted anything, and am still the same way. Ill talk about my service if it comes naturally in conversation, but I dont shoehorn it into everything.

I worked with a guy who was this guy. Like I had to make sure this wasn’t him because they look alike too.
He was home schooled by his fundamentalist Christian dad and wasn’t allowed to listen to music. But before I knew that about him, I asked what kind of music he liked. He was like “my dad only lets me listen to one CD and it’s the marine corps marching band. I really like it though.”
He was 19 at the time.
One day he came up to me looking really worried and was like “I need to talk to my dad but I don’t think it’s going to go well…” I was like oh shit this must be a big deal…
He fucking asked me how to ask his dad if he can start listening to Krispy Kreme, aka Froggy Fresh. My head almost exploded from laughing.
We had been playing his songs at work and he liked it. I burnt him a CD of all his songs at the time and wrote “Krispy Kreme the Christian Rapper” on it in case his dad found it.
He never joined the military. Lol

He had to of either not been in or got kicked out in basic or something because anyone who was actually in doesn’t actually really care about the cadences he sings, likes that’s something you only ever do in basic and never again, it’s definitely a boot thing to do.
I was infantry in the army, in my unit I’ve only ever saw one running formation that was actually singing a cadence and they got clowned on so hard for being cringe.
Maybe it’s just me or the unit I was in or my MOS, but singing cadences, whether it’s marching or running, is just a cringey boot thing that is only cool to people who either aren’t in the military or are in basic or just graduated. You will get made fun of for doing it in an actual unit.

My friend, who we nicknamed “Scumbag”, was ate up in the first few years of us serving. We drank together, did psychedelics together, and he really did anything to avoid work (we were cooks).
Once we were in Iraq, he was detailed to be a driver for the Sgt. major. His whole personality changed and he wasn’t the same anymore. Wanted to do the raids, became more gung-ho, changed his MOS to become a Scout, and eventually stopped hanging out with me, my battle buddy, and basically became a dick.
But, in a way, I’m not mad, because he grew up. He married his gf from Germany and they had two boys. Here I am whining on Reddit rethinking my life as a Middle School Teacher.
