hell this is cream puff time compared to when I went thru..little quartermaster chief Francisco Castro, he would walk thru ranks and if you flinched or moved would smack you along side the head with his clipboard..marching with 02 Spingfields and exercising with them. yup life has changed, now they have "time outs" in bootcamp. and women in their companies. Hell the only woman we saw for 4 weeks was that fat woman issueing dog tags and taking info for life insurance!
@centurion180ad also the ship stores its Ordnance below decks.....if they have Marines on board they usually have a metric shit ton of 155 shells and all the ordnance that the aircraft use. When I went below once, I saw some WP shells mixed in with everything else. TL DR: If a Exo were to penetrate an LHD sized ship, they'd all be dead
@Flutistno3 I was thinking more along the lines of what happens when an Exocet antiship missile penetrates the side of a warship, its warhead bursts & burns a fuel bunker, and its unspent propellant sprays all over the place burning like magnesium.
All of this usually happens in foul weather, at night, and may even come to pass when the ship is not at Action Stations.

@89bhs I'd scap that Coney Island amusement park small arms simulator. That is WORSE than a waste of time, and taxpayer's debt.
Recruits ought to be shown a raging out-of-control inferno, because that is a REAL show stopper!
I'd overhaul this screwed up system, bigtime.
Officers are out in la-la land, getting more loopy by the hour. Classist discrimination, must be done away with.
Structure & training is totally out of whack.
Pay, incentives & allowances SUCK.
Any questions?

Worst case.
