MilBrony 214 May 13, 2013 Share May 13, 2013 It's all in a name is it not? I joined the 'herd' under some strange conditions; while deployed to Afghanistan my platoon quickly went through every single movie, cartoon, TV show, and other uh...."Viewing Material" shall we say While trading videos amongst some other soldiers, one of the shows I downloaded had the title, "MLP:FIM" on it. When I asked this other guy what it was and all he told me was "Trust me bro, just watch it" I quickly forgot about it. A month later, after a mission outside the wire that had dragged an extra three days than we had intended, tired and hungry, I plopped down in my rack and grabbed two things: a peanut butter cliff bar, and my laptop. I skimmed through the TV shows on my external; House MD, Spartacus, Boondocks, South Park, Family guy, MLP:FIM...I figured what the hell, and opened it up. While deployed I had only one season, and I thought for the longest time that was it for the show, so imagine my joy when I discovered two more waiting for me after I came back! In the words of one pony; ............yay............. Oh yeah, I'm in the army btw...lol betcha cant guess what I do winner gets a muffin 11 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

longgone 873 May 14, 2013 Share May 14, 2013 First off, simply wish to say thanks for serving! . I haven't the guts to join, nor the will, for the "over modernization" over the army distastes me. For some reason though I wouldn't mind traveling back 150 years and signing up with a regiment. Be being a musician would decrease my chances of finding a minie ball in my chest Oh well, back on topic, WELCOME! Season 4 comes in like...fall or winter of this year I think. The mods are nice, same goes for the users as well. Have fun :3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

longgone 873 May 14, 2013 Share May 14, 2013 Claim the holy land! 'Course those crusaders had a heck of a trip XD. Disease was rampant, terrain was almost impossible to navigate through. I read at one point they had to cross a peice of a mountain. The path was so skinny they had to go through single file XD They might as well have crossed a lake of fire XD. But a siege engineer would be pretty epic. Shoot trebuchets and what not Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MilBrony 214 May 15, 2013 Author Share May 15, 2013 Wow ur in the army... That is amazing... Welcome to the forums and I am going to join the Army in 19K W00t Armor FTW (: Ohh armor! As far as I can remember there are some great postings for that MOS Ft Knox, (I was there for an experimental unit that fell through for financial reasons from the Pentagon) Ft Benning, I heard was getting some mechanized units Ft Hood/ Ft Bliss in Texas are both nice too Good luck and try to have fun with it. The best advice I could give anyone joining/ about to get into the military is this; look after yourself 100% of the time, but keep an eye on your 'battle buddy' as well. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beyonder 46 June 17, 2013 Share June 17, 2013 Thank you very, very much for your service. Definitely a very interesting story on how you got started lol Staring beyond; up past the moon - - - will we reach the stars yet soon? Met quick with loss; no sure response - - - men reach up high with their thoughts. How high it goes; still no one knows - - - the likes of which search thick in droves. Yet looking far; up near the stars - - - truth knows no better than we are. With silver thread; and clouded head - - - blissful 'neath the darkened dune.
