Are you ready to do our war crimes tribunal when the ******* overlords take over?
LOL, I am legit laughing my ass off. Never did happy bus. I vaguely remember the icos not showing up (because they were scared right?) and vigilance toc getting hit, but it did not really involve me so I don't remember too many details. I don't remember brits being there either.....?????

I worked with NATO in Afghanistan and worked with brits a lot, but don't recall them in Iraq.

Concerning the tribunals, I conducted myself in a professional manner and adhered to all regulations and policies. I never witnessed anyone violating any of them. (also, I have been to SERE) My angus is peppered.



Also: when 2 burnt their own chit down, I remember driving by in the 2.5 ton seeing them locked in the holding area thinking "you did this to yourselves".

Lmao. Yeah man they had control of basrah airport and were constantly rotating through in fact, it was British marines or army that flew me out back to buerhing. One of their artillery units ended up at bucca for a little bit and when we got hit they fired back. Most the time the army would only shoot illumination rounds back but the brits said fuk that and made it rain. We were all in that stupid ass formation we had to do after idf and everyone was cheering and chit. My csl started a small mutiny over that formation chit, all it would have taken was a mortar to hit that spot and kill the entire guard force.

And LMAO at that response. I remember some navy cats admitted to a bunch of chit. Straight potatoes.

I did a few convoys from bucca to navstar (on the border of Kuwait) before navstar closed, but I never went to the port of um' quasr or basra. When I went to Buerhing or ali al salime it was by helicopter. (and one of the pilots in a 60 who flew that mission was one of my instructors in flight school). So I did not interact with the brits at those locations. I remember those formations.....

meh, the military has to military but I agree that having your entire force gather in one spot, every single time as a reaction to one specific incident is extremely compromising.

They didn't work the TIF or anything but a lot of them definitely came through. Iirc they used bucca as a sort of r&r location. I remember watching from the TIF, from one of our towers we could see the landing pad, all the teams leaving and wishing it was me. Army was supposed to fly us out but we got pushed thankfully some brits swooped us up.

They closed navstar and then we ran out of food. We ended up having to eat detainee chow at one point. It wasn't even that bad tbh. It got to the point we were hoarding food in the rafters in the qsl shacks and people were getting into fights over fruit loops. It made the news back home too and the army denied it but we got food again, LOL.

What a weird place man.

yeah man, now that I am in the army, all my friends like to make jokes about when I was in the AF. I simply state how when Navstar closed, we were completely cut off. No food, no mail, and so on. I assume most people just write me off as trying to exaggerate the situation.

Bucca was not like "war" as portrayed in hollywood or whatever, but it was very much war, beyond what most people experience in the military.


Not trying to have some victim complex or anything, I pride myself on mental and emotional stability....


but we did deal with some ****. like real ****ing hardcore ****.

100% agree. On my way out a lot of the new kids just bitched about being cops, there is one that went to Afghan in like 2011 on the misc and just sat a gate. Back in the mid 2000's your ass was guranteed to go to bucca or pulling otw patrols somewhere else unless you were female or couldn't be trusted. I have friends from tech school get really fuked up doing patrols in the 586th side. I had a sense of pride of everything I did, especially at bucca. I started to feel really guilty about some of it the last few years but I take solace in the fact that Arabs are not actual human beings.

Can confirm... I sat at a gate. That's what my job was, so I did it. Just as you were commanded to go where you went, stop pretending like you made some superior moral decision to contribute more. This doesn't mean that the job isn't any less monotonous.

concerning the feeling guilty part, I agree. I have had discussions with some of my buddies who are still SF. I try to explain my perspective after getting out. They get it, but I get their mind set as well.


The military is amazing in that it is self aware and recognized need for improvement. We are not too ashamed to know when we messed up. After everything I do we intentionally and deliberately try to solicit input on how to better in the form of an AAR.

We are not perfect, but what is important is that we understand that and acknowledge our errors and implement ideas to simply be better than we were.

90% of the military does nothing. There are infantry cats that never deploy and some that "deploy" to Kuwait and make it sound like they saved the world. You did what you were supposed to during a time when everything was winding down. It's not any less than anyone else. We are all just cogs and some did things some didn't. It wasn't anyone's choice to do anything. You made it out with an honorable in what I believe to be the chittiest career field out of any in the military. The fact that you did it, to the best of your ability, even though you hated it, shows your character in itself.

Despite how chitty security forces is, you know what it's like to be at the worst possible level and without knowing it are probably better than others at everything you do because you actually experienced one of the suckiest fuking jobs with the worst leadership in existence. You didn't just ldar and used the experience to positively affect your life. Iirc you just finished your bachelor's or some chit.

I'd say the 90% is generous, probably around 95% depending on your definition of "nothing". But that's still an extremely optimistic way of viewing it. Obviously we can't wind back the clock but I would definitely go TACP... you're absolutely right about the "leader"ship... I still get heated when I Skype my buddies still in and listen to the **** they're spoon-fed weekly. I feel like those who would make good leaders see the light at the end of the tunnel(ironmanlet & you) and GTFO, and those who get placed in leadership positions probably wouldn't of been very successful at any other feat in life. Just my .02

And no brah... did not finish my bachelors but I'll be transferring into an Engineering program here soon.

Out of curiosity, how are the Missile Security Forces Squadron's viewed?

I was stationed in Minot ND for 3 years. (2003-2006).


while it is a good resume builder, PRP has some significant nuances. (too bad you don't know what PRP is)

Nowadays, not much better than a standard LE squadron. We have a chit ton of guys here at Lackland who were missile field and fukn hated it. Mostly because of the chit weather (all being in the northern tier), but also because they apparently don't give two fuks about troops or morale. Just like the rest of the Air Force.

I've DQ'ed so many dudes from PRP for the stupidest ****. I think we had to kank some kid because we gave him a percoset after I pulled his toenail. It was short term but it still is too tedious.

Good job and good luck OP, if I had to do it all over again I would have done the blue to green program, picked up 68W, E-5, and my bonus haha.

Or went straight 11B but I'm too old to be a boot again.

Is it a permanent duty station or are you cycled back to a standard LE squadron after a few years? I'd assume they would get some good follow on training and school seats though?
