CTC, TSB | Fort Leonard Wood, MO

What could have been a good job; was basically made shit by over bearing, control freak non-combat arms who couldn't find their ass with both hands; volunteered E-7's for every shit job on post to make themselves look good. While badgering Soldiers for being in unit instead of combat; while most were healing or broke dick from combat injuries; but they homesteaded post whole career and no combat experiece. Thats fort wood for you. Don't know shit; fuck over anyone who knows more than you or will stand up to you.
