So the myth about most of the Navy are weebs is true. That or maybe most of the population are weebs.

Wearing weeb stuff in your school backpack okay, but do you really have to wear that patch in the military...

Hey but cool moustache!

Every Navy vet I've met is an anime fan. I think I just hang around a lot of anime fans though.

I'm a Navy vet, and the only anime I can remember watching was Inuyasha. I'm probably an outlier though, because the only thing I actually like to watch is Star Trek

Edit: I was aviation, so not your typical sailor

Raises the question: does Lower Decks count as an anime?

[–] [email protected] 3 points 5 months ago

Oh ya, Navy Aviators love some dumb patches. You should look up the Navy sky penis incident and all the ensuing patches from that.

I've seen stuff like that on helmets, but not flight suit. My service is pretty strict on what you can put on flight suits, though. Helmets (while still against the rules) are generally acceptable as long as they are not inappropriate.

He's not even really a weeb. He just found a show he liked.

Talk to me Goose.

Can't tell if that bar is gold or silver.

With that try-hard moustache, it is probably gold. 😏

(That patch also makes him look like an Air Force doofus.)

Tell your friend good luck, and make sure his landings = his take offs.

It looks like a "Dedicated to" photo that would appear after the credits on an American sitcom after one of the crew died

Congrats on your friend though for joining the second largest air force in the world

I guess that's a compliment?

Do a thematic series "Portraits of a would be murderer".

[–] [email protected] 1 points 5 months ago

thats a cool idea, I may do that

Haha do forces never give fitting uniforms? That sleeve looks too long... enough to tie around back after crossing your arms...
