The worst thing I've ever seen was my friend flipping the FUCK out while we were on acid.
Pretty tame, but still traumatic.

well that makes me feel better for taking the soft armor out of my Interceptor before fallujah because our armorer told me the soft armor was shit and should just carry plates
>>23843965
Damn that really sucks. How did it defeat his armor?
>>23844009
dunno, could have just been bad luck of the soldier getting an old substandard vest and/or the kebab having AP ammo. He wasn't in my brigade so I never got any info after we got him on the bird.
some good did come of it. they posted a M113 ambulance and medics at the gate after the incident. all they had before was a combat life saver bag in the HMMWVs at the gate.

Absolutely horrifying
I watched my grandfather die.
I'll never forget watching him throw up all over himself, and my grandmother regretting, giving the doctors the OK to take him off life support.
The second worse thing was...
>be driving to highschool
>be at first red light in a line of 3 stoplights
>a minivan flies by me, through the red light, and down the hill in front of me.
>light turns green
>I go to through the second light, then have to stop at the third
>the van got hit by a huge diesel truck, while trying to run another light (i think, or the truck ran the light)
>I hear sirens coming, so I pull past the wreck
>as I drive around I can see into the van
>all the windows facing me are broken out
>the lady driving wrapped her face around her steering wheel.
>there was blood splattered all over the front of the van.
>i could see in the back
>there had to have been 4 or 5 kids back there.
>one's head was hanging out the broken window
>the other two were painted red, and not moving.
>the last kid I saw was originally in a car seat (he was the smallest)
>he was now wedged between his mom's seat and the console.
I drove past and waited on a cop to pull up. I told him I saw her run a light, and he said "Son, you don't need to see this, get out of here."
For some reason that made it all worse. Him thinking I hadn't seen any of it.

That in the middle of that, you had the simple compassion to comfort a dieing child in her last moments. To provide something simple as your presence and your contact in that time.
>>23845225
My parents only checked my plate
>>23845232
Wasn't even necessarily her kids, apply the same reasoning with a single childless women doing baby sitting.

I have two similar experiences. I used to drive a lot when I was a security guard.
>see car upside down in the bench
>judging by the marks it had left it had had a pretty wild spin
>half of one passenger is in the tree above the car
>one kid is under the car
>one between the car and a tree
>the driver is 50m away
>no one was breathing or even in one piece
>call cops and fire department
>wait in the blistering cold winter night alongside the dead kids for the cops (took half an hour or so)
>arrive at another crash site
>cops get there half a minute after me so I don't have to do anything
>still "get" to see everything
>mom had suicided with a kid on board
>130km/h against a huge rock
From that day on I have not been able to get the image off my head. The kid had been wearing a Hello Kitty -shirt and it was wrapped around a support beam along with the girl. I could never ever get my kid anything Hello Kitty thanks to that image. I actually had trouble sleeping after that.
But the worst:
>be inna supermarket doing mall cop shit
>see a shady guy
>follow shady guy discreetly
>shady guy has a daughter, oh well maybe he is decent after all
>wait a minute..
>see shady guy looking around and grabbing the kid (10yo btw) under the shirt and shit
>the girl is about to cry and says "please don't do it here"
>the rage inside me cannot be contained
>apprehend the fucker
>police arrive
>they say they can't do shit because the act wasn't caught on tape and the kid says the dad didn't touch her
>the kid is bruised and scared to hell and back and the cops see it too but the best they can do is to inform the social services which in return leads to nowhere
>they let the guy go even though they are too seemingly disgusted
>never see the guy or the kid again
That was the only time I have ever seriously planned murdering someone. I will never ever forget the crushed hope in that girls eyes, that shit was soul-crushing.
And the worst thing is cases like that were common.
>>23845244
I think he would have probably preferred to skip it, you fucking imbecile
I consider myself lucky that the worse thing I saw in Iraq didn't even involve someone dying... Think I've told this story once before here, but oh well:
>'07-'08
>QRF, get called out to run security for a EOD unit so they can clear some bumfuck route that no one uses
>"Welp, better than sitting around here all day"
>Go out there, set up the security, wait fucking hours for EOD to show up
>They get their robot out and start sending it down range
>Takes another fucking hour (seemed like it) for the robot to travel the km down the road to get to the IED
>Suddenly BOOOOOOOOOM
>IED goes off, whether because the robot triggered something or there was a triggerman watching and wanted to take the robot down at least, I don't know
>We start hooting and hollaring at the sight of the explosion
>Suddenly realize we can hear someone screaming
>Think, oh fuck, some piece of shrapnel just traveled a fucking click and tagged someone
>Turn to see the EOD guy who was controlling the robot trying to fight off the rest of the EOD team who is holding him back
>EOD-robot-controller is screaming "SLOW JOE! NOT SLOW JOE, OH GOD, PLEASE, NOT SLOW JOE, NOT SLOW JOE! LET ME SAVE HIM, I CAN FIX HIM, SLOW JOE, SLOW JOE!"
>Guy fucking starts sobbing and his team force him back into their humvee

Strangest thing I ever saw, made me feel bad despite the fact it was just a machine
>>23845248
>My parents only checked my plate
This is a weird kind of feel. I can tell this would be funny to me, if not for my feelings about that kid. All I'm left with is a grimace and this weird feeling. Guess I'm not as desensitized as I thought...
>>23845353
Why didn`t you stalk him?
>>23845382
I've heard that happens pretty often actually.
>>23845353
That post made me sick.
You should have fucking killed him. the only thing letting bad men do bad things...
I've told this here before but it still haunts me so I think it qualifies even though it isn't as bad as most of the stuff in this thread.
>be in what is our equivalent of high-school
>the school building also has school for younger kids
>Valentines day coming up

>for a second she is baffled
>then runs away in tears

>later find out that the jokes I had made had gone around to the middle-school and people had started to bully her about it
>she changes schools after a year or so
Holy shit I feel bad for that. I mean it must have taken every bit of courage in her to come up to me, her 'crush', and hand over that card. And I basically did the worst thing I could.
I certainly hope she did better in the next school.

If I had say followed him and done something I wouldn't admit it here, you know.
But if I was writing a novel about a situation like that I guess the protagonist, who had access and connections to people involved with narcotics, could for example make it so that the same police officers he was already familiar with get a tip about just some random guy having just enough product to put him away for few years. Also it would be a pretty cool plot twist if the protagonists brother was in jail and somehow got the info about the pedophile molester that was about to come into the same prison and he somehow accidentally leaked this info among the other inmates. Would be cool, right?
>>23845063
fucking ROE when they tell us that we're supposed to be all about hearts and minds and then pull this shit because "dur culture" We need to go full freedom on these backward ass motherfuckers.
Sorry for the rant but your story made me rage with the force of a thousand suns.
>>23845382
This one made me really sad for some reason and I got choked up. I guess it's imagining the screaming.

>Kid always use to come around the base
>Pretty sure he was an orphan, ran around in one of those street-rat mobs you see
>He was a fascinated by military stuff, really liked anything to do with the military, wore whatever milsup he could get his hands on and since it was always too large for him, me and the guys called him "Bags", short for baggy
>Got to the point where even though he didn't speak english, he knew we meant him when we called out "Yo, Bags! What's up!"
>For some reason, I forget why, we where taking out a shit-ton of old uniforms to go burn them, they were the old chocolate chips
>I instantly think of Bags and save one of the smaller tops for him
>Clean it up, have a buddy of mine sew the right patches on (ACU patches, so they stood out, but still), make it look real nice
>Present it to Bags next time I see it
>He goes wide eye then looks up at me with that innocent "For me?" look that only a fucking 10 year kid can give
>He's estatic, throws off the ragged jacket he has on, puts the chocolate chip
>It's still too big, but he looks happy as fuck, he fucking hugs me
>Feel like I made a difference in this terrible country
>Not two days later, hear someone talking about a dead body they had found on the route leading from the closest village to the base
>It was a little boy
>It was a little boy wearing a chocolate chip jacket
Rumor around the village is that he was killed because of the "US ARMY" tag on the jacket I had sewn on. At least, that's the most that we ever found out, never found out who did it.
I still see Bags in my dreams and he keeps asking me in perfect english, "Why didn't you come save me? I though I was part of the team? Why didn't you come save me?"
>>23845296
I stopped and waited on the cop. I could hear sirens getting pretty close. The hospital was only 2 streets over. and there were already people stopped near the van and the driver of the truck was out, and on his phone.
>>23843778
I saw a nigger throw a plastic wrapper directly into a storm drain today.
I thought regular dead people sucked until I saw an Iraqi that had a severe bot fly infestation in his nutsack and upper thighs. I don't think any of us ate that night.

>>23845702
I remember being a dick to a kid that was fat and about 3 feet shorter then everyone else. I bullied him for no other reason then his tears made me laugh. I remember at some point something clicked inside my mind and I asked myself "WHAt the fuck am I doing?" and then I reached down and helped him up after I just pushed him down in a mud pit. He was crying and suspicious, I just helped him up with no shenanigans and he walked away sniffling. Never fucked with him again after that but other people still did...A few times I actually sat with him at lunch and let him play sports with us on the playground. I got some shit from my friends for it but I was cool enough to not really be effected by it.
>>23845353
Should have gotten the guys ID and taken a pic of it before anyone else arrived. If the address is valid you know where he lives. If it hasn't been updated you still have a good lead.

Yea, semi-stressful events become REALLY stressful on L.
Fortunately, last time I tripped it was snowing and I just listened to metal with a good friend and spray painted profanity and gore doodles into the snow.

>>23845670
Fuck
I was onna mission babbysitting some civil affairs unit as they traipsed around to a bunch of little Pashtun villages in trashcanistan.
Hardcore grown male Pasthuns often wear what's called a face-cutting knife, which they use to cut the face of any of their women that show their face in public. Well, I was sitting on my upgun waiting for the Civil Affairs types to do their thing before we could get moving again.
Along comes this group of women that walk down the road we're on because we parked in the one road through town. They're hushed and somewhat hurrying to get away from us. But it's a bit windy out, and the wind catches one of those girl's burkas/face tent thing, and it blows off of her face and ends up under my vehicle. She is panicking fierce and I tell my buddy to get out and grab it for her. Well, she grabbed it real quick, but not before one of the older crusty fucks that lives there sees the whole thing.
He's fucking pissed, and while he probably knew it was an accident, he was treating it like she was trying to show her face to us infidels.
Guy pulls out his facecutting knife, looks me in the eye, and SMILES before he mauls this girls face, cuts her deep, like 4-5 times before hitting her & telling her to cover her face. The remaining women scurry her off and he just chills there, staring at me with a smug look on his face while every cell in my body is crying out to belt-dump this guy with my M240.
Several of us saw the whole thing, a lot more looked up when she started crying/screaming about getting her face mauled.
Our 1LT ended up taking our terp and our medic and talking to the tribal elders to see about treating her wounds. The sick fucks wanted us to PAY to treat her wounds. Ended up giving those ungrateful sick fucks several sacks full of beans & rice just so our doc could patch up and clean the girls cuts on her FACE.
Every time I hear a woman scream or cry out in fear, I'm filled with this sad, deep, fiery rage.

This post upset me.
What truly apalling ungrateful animals. Are you pleased to have helped them to make their country slightly less shitty?
From a tactical point of view, how much of a heads up did you get? It sounds as though you might have been able to prevent this senseless mutilation. No offence meant if not.
>>23845854
Second pic of the Facecutter I brought back from that deployment. It's a fancy one that folds up. only the tip of the 'beak' is sharp, it's useless for anything else and the higher-up elder types get fancier ones, like a status symbol.
I would genuinely enjoy any report of some group of Russians or whatever going through those villages and murdering every single male above the age of 10 or so. I genuinely struggle with the idea that they're even the same species as we are.

If there had been ANY way.. any way at all. I'd have done it. But our ROE had just tightened up even further (lol surge tactics) and the higher brass was dying for some joe like me to do something like that, and make an example of him to show the locals how 'fair' we were.
>>23845670
Fucking savages man, they couldn't just take the jacket away from him.
I honestly want there to be an afterlife just so these shitheads really get whats coming to them, I don't even care about good people go when they die, I just hope hell exists.
Worse thing I've seen was a girl get hit by a car. Was taking my now ex girlfriend home from school and was sitting in a turn lane in front of a side walk. Middle schooler looked left then right and sprinted across and ran into the side of a Buick that flipped her back word 10 yards in front of my car. She ended up being ok but it was scary as fuck.
>>23845905
Again, outside of our ROE, guy wasn't carrying a rifle or RPG sort of weapon and didn't show hostile intent toward *US* specifically.
>>23845825
Yeah, I think about it sometimes. The base therapist said the same thing that "it was in the line of duty during a time of war" but I still can't get over I killed some kids and their mom who were probably just cowering from all the noise and shit.
Now, on the flip side, there is one I don't regret whatsoever also the last one I remember that I know for sure that it was me that killed them out of the 6 I know.

Seriously, that's fucking disgusting. I don't know how you kept your finger off the trigger. I doubt I would have been as disciplined. I suppose even a warning shot or shouting could have caused a whole lot of shit in that situation. I've never been deployed so no idea.

>What truly apalling ungrateful animals. Are you pleased to have helped them to make their country slightly less shitty?
No, honestly I'm just angry about all of it. The only improvement we could have made would have been to glass ALL of it.
They're savages but they understand well how to manipulate western feels to get shit they want. They're great at sounding like your ally so long as you give them free shit, but they're giving that free shit to the dudes we're fighting and ratting out our details, etc, ALL the time. The 'better' ones that are truly our allies are only that way because they're backing us as the winning horse and they want to run shit when we leave, and they're almost all boy-raping illiterate subhuman filth.
So yeah, we're spending millions of dollars having the Army Corp of Engineers build nice roads, new infrastructure, etc, while the guys we hand it off too can't read let alone maintain any of it.
Same goes for the ANA and their military prowess. There's a viral vid right now of a bunch of them trying to do jumping jacks for PT, and it explains everything in 45 seconds.
Their religion runs everything and it is dark, ugly, horrible shit that does little else but justify bonafide motherfucking evil, ignorant shit.
They make an authentic Deetroit hoodrat look like a fucking Rhodes Scholar when it comes to education or empathy.

I once threw a hedgehog in front of a lorry and I still feel bad about it now, at least in these threads. A lot of us are assholes as kids. You wouldn't do it now and that's all that matters. Chin up.

I'd tell the author he did well
>>23845946
Good job, man. Glad you tagged that fucker.
I've posted this a couple times before
I used to live in California. I was walking to the store through a shit area once and I pass by this kid playing around on the sidewalk, I don't think much of it and keep walking. I get about 30 feet past the kid and I hear this deep bass music from behind me, I look back and see a black surbuban just driving
The kid runs into the street trying to save some toy he had out there, he falls down and the suburban does not stop. As the front right tire rolled over his head he let out a brief screech that I will never forget and when it popped that sound echoed down the whole street.
The surburban never stopped but it did speed up after it ran the kid over and disappeared down another street. I didn't get the license plate and "A black surburban" isn't very useful for finding someone when there are a million of the fucking things everywhere you look.
>>23845670
Jesus anon
I feel for you
>>23846055
Oh I forgot to add what it was
I can't remember exactly but it was something like he accidentally reversed the cables for the rudders or ailerons, I can't remember which, and forgot to double check before actually flying the thing.

>>23846127
I had a cat that got run over, the lower half of her body was a fucking pancake mashed to the pavement but her upper half was still whole, I was a kid, I knew what I had to do but I was too soft to kill her so I sat with her for another 15 minutes trying to comfort her as she flailed around wailing just trying to get away from the pain, at some point she just stopped moving.

It was just a small airfield about two hours north of Seattle and it was probably 2006ish. It was a little kit plane thing. I don't know the specifics about what it was, but it was just a single seat cockpit and it was really small. It's wingspan couldn't have been more than a few meters. It was just a tiny little plane that I guess you fly around for fun.
>>23846226
Expiramentals are fun. Hope I get to fly one of my own some day.
>>23845976
Shit mate, that sounds bleak as fuck. I imagine it's hard to do what you do when they just carry on as before. I mentioned in an earlier post that I've never been deployed but I've spoken to chaps that have and they said that was the worst part: Second / third tour, looks the same as the first.
I honestly think there's no helping these people. Either stay away or as you said, glass the place. Anyway, I hope you're alright now. Sounds like a tough job. God bless.
>>23846125
Fair enough. Like I said, it wasn't your fault. I appreciate that probably means little coming from some anon but it's true.

That's because their repressive culture goes back to the middle ages. After the Mongols raped their way across the Middle East and Genghis Khan himself said he was a punishment of God, the Arabs thought they were being punished for their sins. They thought the intellectualism, scholarly tradition and rather liberal culture was an affront to their God. Radical repressive and conservatives took hold in the ideology and we're still dealing with the embers of that bullshit.
>>23843864
I feel like where war is involved, bad shit just kind of becomes weird shit for the most part.
Like, pissing on someone's corpse is fucked up if you're a civilian, but when shit is already fucked up around you, it is just kind of weird.
Same with your story, If I heard about someone desecrating a grave on the news, it would be pretty fucked up, but in this instance, it isn't fucked so much as it is bizarre.

I have felt like shit ever since. And what made it worse was when I had to see the school nurse because of my depression after the incident she tried cheering me up by telling me how my sister, who visited the office frequently due to her condition, was always talking about me and how glad she was that I looked after her and would never let anything bad happen to her and that I was not only her brother but also her best friend.

demanding a pre nup can ruin even a good marriage before it begins. and the second you need it, it gets thrown out in court.
the only way is to marry only if you're 100% sure that marrying this woman is more important than everything you own. cause if any of your possessions is more important to you than your woman, you shouldn't marry her anyway.

If a pre nup ruins the marriage then she wasn't in it 100% and if she puts demands on your belongings or hobbies then she isn't 100% into it and is just using you for your money/security/whatever.
I am not proud of this, just to be clear...

I never deployed to Afgahnistan, only Iraq, but my buddy said the Polish GROM were famous for not giving a shit and murdering fucks that did this kind of stuff. We usually had a drone or Helicopter in the area, and they would report they "Saw something over (insert other area here)" the drone or aircraft would look at that area instead of them, and when the aircraft looks back there's the Poles and a bunch of bodies.
The worst thing I've seen is probably /b/

I've never been one to hype up other nation's soldiers, because it's always done by who is coolest to hang out with, but Polish soldiers are unreal.
We did joint training in Germany, I was a Blackhawk crewman/gunner in the US Army. Big international exercise, we are providing airlift to train with other nations. Germans bumble around, French strut, but the Poles are just solid fucking duty. Every single person that got on my aircraft was solely disciplined and completely about the mission.
Barely even heard of Poland before that, but they're probably one of my favorite nations now.

One of my intel buddies said they got a report that 6 guys died and the listed reason was "argument over chai boy 2 village elders involved".
(For non military: chai boys are the little boys that they fuck in the ass)
I know this is supposed to be a sad thread, but imagine that. Two leading members of a community with their personal guards got in an argument over which one got to fuck a little boy in the ass, and it got so heated that they attempted to murder each other.
Over a little boy's asshole. Six men died. Anyone who wants to know more about Afghanistan I tell that story, because it is the best summation of how much of a shithole it is.

German here. It's one of our favorite nations, too.
>>23846794
The Poles seem to have always been a resilient and dutiful people. They fought so fucking hard in WWII, although they weren't a "big player" in the nation-state game.
Warsaw never gave up and had an uprising twice, sacrificing 85 percent of the city.
Of course the Germans won, but it's kind of beautiful to me how much the Poles resisted against a titanic power that swallowed their neighbors within months.
>>23846655
> deploy with sotf
> the poles call us odas because the read our connexes and wreck shit
> like Yoda without the y
>>23846842
the sad part is that I think I know exactly what you're talking about, because (at least at our base) we'd have to routinely stop fights over that sort of shit whenever we were in town
btw, imagine our base commander's face when he found out that our afghani "police" were paying for sex with bullets and gernades. Apparently whenever they went into town without an American supervisor they'd give it all away for sex and then claim later on that they were engaged by the taliban even though they never radioed about it or took any casualties
what gets me is how blatantly obvious it all is, they have no shame. At the end of my deployment my superiors straight up told us they were giving up in regards to it. When we finally packed up for Bagram they afghanis talked about how they wanted to turn the mess hall into a fucking bar. Less than 48 hours after our departure the taliban walked right in as they all abandoned their posts. fucking scumbags
>>23846875
> poles call us odas because the read our connexes and wreck shit
what does this mean
>>23846933
That's what happens when you back a cause whose members don't even believe in it. The Taliban will win in the end because the Taliban have a cause they fight for. The Afghans don't care for a democratic Afghanistan or an Afghan nation. It's sad.
I think the best we can do is just contain them.
>>23846950
all joking aside at the end of it all I got along with captured Taliban more than the people I was assigned to train. For as filthy as they are they at least made some attempt to "better" themselves (granted, it's not much because Islam). I wouldn't call any of them bros or anything but at least in my experience the most they would do is sit quietly and read their korans. Compare this to trainees that would literally smoke dope and drink on duty everyday and would never do anything unless you were right there staring at them threatening to get MPs involved.
Everything that we were doing just seemed so backwards, for as shit as the Taliban were they'd probably make more reliable allies.

I disagree. There was a time, around 1000 years ago, when the Arab world was probably the most advanced and 'tolerant' in the world.
For example it was an Arab scientist who first thought out the basis of the modern scientific principle. They were very pro-knowledge and they were on a good path.
But then it all went to shit.
Hell, in the 50s and 60s Afghanistan was actually sorta kinda getting better but they just couldn't do it.
Nowadays the best solution would be to glass the area.
>>23846852
>>23847291
That would be about the time they crucified every Christian in Jerusalem (1009) and burnt down the Church of the Sepuchre but after they used the entire fucking Library of Alexandria to heat their bathwater, right...?
The Islamic Renaissance is a myth. There is not one invention they claimed, from alchemy to algebra, that they didn't steal and rename. And very few of the grandeloquent claims they make for themselves are borne out in the archeological record. One of my weird hobbies is medieval medicine and when I delved into the wonderful tolerant gifted Islamic contributions to it I was left groping in a vacuum. Then I tried metallurgy. Then I tried alchemy. It's all bullshit. The Middle East has always been the Middle East and muds have always slimed.
