    "The Hurt Locker" new feature film on EOD/bomb squad GIs in Iraq

    LOL too true what a funny statement; another thing being he was wearing a CIB which is only awarded to infantry who take and return fire  along with an EOD badge, which is not done. Another thing they were wearing their skill badges in country and when you arrive in Kuwait they tell you take...

    Apparently your azmith is off course because your asking Naval and Air Force questions in the Infantry section.

    I am really confused

    You go to your unit have your team leader degrade you and remind you that your all sort of fucked up and the majority of what you learned in basic doesn't apply to the 'line dog lifestyle' you'll dream of being a scout/sniper and if your good enough you shall leave the line and join up with them.
