Military Themed Website with absurd military statements

2014-10-11T09:18:03-04:00

I ran across this site a few days ago. It has the most absurd statements I have ever seen relating to rank. Look at how W-1's and 2LT's are made on these attachments! You really have to wonder what the motivation is to run a site that you obviously have no clue as to the contents!!

Are you referring to this site specifically? Some comments you have to take as tongue-in-cheek IMO.....

"W-1 is promoted from Sergeant Major of the Army"

Congratulations, SMA Chandler, you're being promoted to W-1, and we're going to give you this awesome maintenance section to run. Oh, and sorry about the pay cut.

I remember when I was a CW5 and found out that I was selected for 2LT. It was one of the proudest fictional achievements of my military career.

CW5 Private RallyPoint Member, that is funny!!! So imagine how many years one would have to serve to be a general officer. Wow! I got a laugh out of those images. Thanks.

Seems like some civilian web designer took the rank ladder and pay grade charts order...literally.

It doesn't even say a 2nd Lt has to salute a 1st Lt! BOGUS!

Good news, CW5 Private RallyPoint Member. If you keep your nose clean and do a good job, you might get promoted to 2LT someday.

Apparently, if I show the right attitude and leadership skills, I can be promoted to LTC. That's it fellas! I'm not going to WOCS!

Well, maybe I'll go anyways... just incase this random LTC promotion doesn't pan out.

Wait so our rank system is based off of Call of Duty and Battlefield 4?!?!? That's why I can get promoted.

Just think, Sir, you are almost eligible to promote to 2LT. This is some funny reading.

Dumb... Somebody did not do their research properly... Last time I checked, you had to be at least a SFC to be considered for WOCS... and 2LT is usually fresh out of school or has gone through ROTC, or in rare cases, promoted from the enlisted ranks, at least a SGT. This reminds me of a Battlefield 4 ranking system...

How much of a cut in pay?
