Porn Packing List

"I smoked a La Gloria Cubana Robusto Gordo Maduro while composing this.

Warning: if you are the kind of person who thinks that most soldiers spend their off-duty hours reading their bible and corresponding with Mrs. Thistletwat’s 5th grade class to thank them for their patriotic cards, stop reading now.

Really. Stop. I mean it.

[OPSEC] Gigantor : “This job has me so stressed, I need some relief.”
Me: “Don’t get caught.”

I’m having a conversation via text message with a soldier who is in her advanced training class at Ft. Lee. After four weeks without sex she is so frustrated that she is nearing the point of doing something stupid. I trained this soldier once, and her ability and skill got her a job as platoon guide. Unfortunately, platoon guide is a stressful position in a training environment and her typical mode of relieving tension, that is wild sex, is not a viable option considering it could garner an Article 15 and some pretty severe non-judicial punishment.

I suggest to her that she activate manual override, but this can have consequences as well.

There are very few places to masturbate in a training environment with semi-private bathrooms and 5 soldiers in your sleeping area. Then one has to consider what happens if you get caught masturbating. Do you get made fun of? Does the person who walked in on you turn their head and retreat from the room with their eyes covered? Do you get known as guy who is always beating the bishop or the girl who is always playing the slots?

I’m thinking about this topic because deployment is one week away and I know at some point I’m going to want some sort of release. Note that masturbation is not just used for sexual relief amongst soldiers. It is also used as a tool to combat excessive bordom. Let me put it another way, if you are in a guard tower on a 4 hour shift, you have a very limited number of entertainment options that can be done with one hand.

And you thought we were scanning our sector?"

Several times soldiers have requested a certain kind of gun oil when asked for items to go into gift boxes. I eventually learned it had nothing to do with the action of their rifles. I could have remained ignorant and been more comfortable.

You know I did not want to say anything to this guy, as he's new and I don't know him or anything, but I think customs will confiscate any porn he take in. I think you buy the porn there from the kid fixers...but I could be wrong.

I always thought the oil was for the guns too.
