This is when a soldier needs to be sent home. I saw something similar happen on a range once, where an instructor put the barrel up to a trainee's head. The instructor was shouting about dead people from his last deployment. I have no idea if he had rounds in the magazine, but I remember that when he pulled the cocking handle back, the bolt slid fully forward and he slammed on the forward assist. His finger was curled onto the trigger. The other instructors were all of a sudden speaking in a very calm voice and removed him from the range.

After 25 years in the military, what u learned is the military does a phenomenal job turning an average person in to a warrior. It does a very poor job converting them back to a civilian. And it's way behind the curve learning how to recognize mental instability in the ranks. It gets real scary when it's caused from the flag officers on up. There was a young sailor in my division who got caught driving missile launchers off base to his apartment. After. Being arrested and asked why he did it, he said he was trying to build a space ship and go to mars,turns out he was completely mentally insane and no one saw it. We had an admiral who decided he wanted to keep an entire carrier battle group out to sea with no port of calls 148 days straight. He was deemed " lost the confidence of leadership" by his superiors. This happens in all branches and all ranks, only way to monitor it is have a psychiatrist assigned to each unit that reports indepentlty to medical where they can stop operations and send people back home.

Then I smash things, I punch bricks, doors, windows, I've grabbed drinking glasses and smashed it on the counter in my hands and then when I stopped I said wtf why did I do that. For me I get guilty, "what is wrong with me." " what if I hurt someone" , "I need to control this" , "nobody can love this person you are you need to chill."

The M1 Abrams is a third-generation American main battle tank designed by Chrysler Defense (now General Dynamics Land Systems) and named for General Creighton Abrams. Conceived for modern armored ground warfare, it is one of the heaviest tanks in service at nearly 73.6 short tons (66.8 metric tons). It introduced several modern technologies to United States armored forces, including a multifuel turbine engine, sophisticated Chobham composite armor, a computer fire control system, separate ammunition storage in a blowout compartment, and NBC protection for crew safety. Initial models of the M1 were armed with a 105 mm M68 gun, while later variants feature a license-produced Rheinmetall 120 mm L/44 designated M256, The M1 Abrams tank can destroy a variety of targets, including: Armored and unarmored vehicles: The M1 Abrams tank can destroy both armored and unarmored vehicles. Buildings: The M1 Abrams tank can destroy buildings. Concrete walls: The M1 Abrams tank can breach concrete walls. Obstacles: The M1 Abrams tank can pulverize obstacles. Bunkers: The M1 Abrams tank can flatten bunkers. Groups of personnel: The M1 Abrams tank can take out groups of personnel. The M1 Abrams is considered one of the best tanks in the world because of its firepower, mobility, and protection: The M1 Abrams' 120 mm M256 smooth bore cannon can fire a variety of rounds at armored vehicles, personnel, and low-flying aircraft. The tank's depleted-uranium rounds can pierce enemy armor. Mobility The M1 Abrams' gas-turbine engine can power the 60-ton tank to speeds of up to 45 mph. The tank's gyro-stabilized barrel and turret allow it to shoot on the move. Protection The M1 Abrams' heavy armor protects the crew of four from small-arms fire, shell fragments, and even some direct hits. The tank can also ford waters up to 4 feet deep.

When you fail the asvab and have to join the marines...

[@subaraptor]

Marine Corps has higher standards than any other military branch including ASVAB. That’s why they have rank reciprocity over all other military branches. It pays to actually know what you are talking about.

[@crustybacon4115]

@@subaraptor A simple google search just proved how wrong you actually are. The Army, Marine Corps and even the National Guard all have the lowest minimum asvab score of 31 for joining, while the Air Force and the Coast Guard require a minimum of 36 (in abnormal circumstances the Air Force will accept a 31, but a waiver of approval is required). "it pays to actually know what you are talking about" tell me you're a civilian without telling me you're a civilian. OR maybe you're just another dumb boot who believes everything you're told.

[@chubsmckinzy9053]

At one point the Marine Corps was used as an ultimatum for people about to go to prison. The choice was, either go to prison or join the Marines. Anyone who is thinking of joining the USMC should think about that before signing on.

[@vsupreme9386]

During the cold War. Yep they'd offer youngsters the army or marines instead of prison and that saved the lives of countless young men who otherwise was heading down the path of recidivism. Then they stopped allowing felons in the military during the 2000s. With all the services branches not meeting their recruiting goals except the marine Corp you can expect the military will start letting felons in soon.

[@jimboramba]

Now they give the job to people with rainbow hair. So much more mentally sound.

26 times simply separating the upper from the lower and reassembling? Not very impressive.

[@themanhimself1229]

I think they fully field strip it and they just cut it out. Or at least take the bolt and carrier out.

[@emperyn3863]

@@themanhimself1229 you can see them just slap the BCG back into the upper receiver. they are just popping it out alittle then putting it back. It would make sense if it was cut to skip past that but they showed them just slapping the BCG in after he says go which shows they were just taking the top receiver off the bottom and then reassembling

[@tenjenk]

it would be bad move making to go into technical physical details about assembling and dissembling those weapons. Bore the audience into losing the point of the scene and waste screen time better spent elsewhere
