West Point Class of 2024 Infantry Post Night

[@mztech1925]

11C here. FIrst ID. My apologies to the guy who got Ft. Riley. But THANK YOU for your service

[@GeistView]

Welcome to the duty roster. Don't show up thinking you know anything... you don't. Learn from your NCO's, don't be a burden. Your time on line is short, you will get pulled to a shop. More than likely... the S3. Get to know and love Powerpoint.

[@TxInfinity]

Another crazy thought is that maybe 5-10 out of this class will make it to 20 years.

[@DaleBrose]

Congrats young LT's. Females in the infantry is something new to me but I guess it's a different infantry than it was 39 years ago. In any case, welcome all the new LT's to the 25th ID family. Please treat your enlisted with respect and listen to and be willing to learn from your senior enlisted.

[@mazsenior]

Congrats to these brave service members as they embark on a career to protect the best nation in the world. God bless you all.

There is no honor left at West Point when they reject the greatest cadet to ever attend, Robert E. Lee.

@@Snuffy03 And a Traitor to the Republic.

[@Snuffy03]

@@governoret Lee graduated 2nd in his class, right behind Albert Sydney Johnston. To this day he is the only cadet in the history of West Point to graduate without one single demerit on his record! He was also Superintendent of the academy when JEB Stuart was a cadet. He was offered command of the Union Army in the spring of 1861, he turned it down, but when Virginia seceded he resigned his commission. I consider Lee a man if honor and conscience who merely fought against an intrusive federal government. I would do the same. Now those men who opposed a government which pushed itself to the forefront of violating the Cobstitution. Now the shiny snowflakes say such men are traitors. They just did what their ancestors did. As all should do today against the shitty government we now have. Remember. Our shitty government is NOT the Republic. The oeople ate and it's time they stood up to the people who want to rewrite history, and control our lives. Well,they all can kiss my Rebel posterior!

[@governoret]

@@Snuffy03 all I hear is a lot of flaky bullshit. Levying war against the United States, which is what he did (by following a seceding gov't, which people DID recognize as wrong and unconstitutional then - you parrot the fiction that this was an unsettled question) and defending an institution of slavery and the debasement of fellow men is neither honorable nor conscionable. Shame on you and your fellow traitor-roaders for defending an indefensible man.

[@TxInfinity]

The funniest shit is the commentary in the background

[@SpyderSuasponte]

I am ashamed that I was convinced that everything would equal in Ranger School and RASP. They failed. If you can’t meet the requirements of a school that has requirements; why split up the men and women with standards?

[@mikemcrae1977]

As an old 1/509 er in Vicenza Italy in 1982-84 I knew Italy would go fast. As an enlisted Grunt I was told by my 2Lt. One night that only the top people from West Point get chosen for Italy. I signed up for the 509 on contract but was sent to Ranger school and then to Italy. Hope they still run Monte Berrico on numbered tongue depressor runs. Find an old timer or someone who knows how that went , it was brutal and you didn’t want to be the last in with Col. Nukem Needham looking at you. But women in the infantry ? Outboard personnel stand up- inboard personnel standup -check static lines -check tampons .. All OK JUMPMASTER

[@poolhub89]

it's "FLOWmaster" now. 🤣🤣🤣

[@cr7neymar908]

2LTs were the worst, basically just privates with some rank. We had specialists teaching them how to do their job

[@drn13355]

And you couldn't even make 2LT. What does that say about you? My second OIF deployment I knew a 2LT who had his left leg blown off at knee. Continued to fight and never stopped until forced to. But whatever. You re the hero because you bad mouth people.

Bragg was a terrible general. To be fair, he was probably one of the top 5 generals that helped the most to win the war for the United States.

[@joepops727]

@documentarydetectiveiii5217 yes the northern liberal mostly urban big government republicans defeated the southern conservative mostly rural small government Democrats. The current paradigm of " the Republicans are the conservative party and the Democrats are the liberal party" did not exist in 1861..that didn't really happen until the late 20th century.

[@BalloonKnotConsortium]

Sure, sissies.
