Oh, btw, I couldn’t find any grid squares either. The supply sergeant said we didn’t have any. Do you know when we can get some more?’
Every Monday, your section is supposed to go out and run a maintenance check on vehicles assigned to your section. Just normal shit, check air pressure. Make sure it starts. Etc
It's really just the First day if the workweek
I never worked in a motor pool, but I’m going to guess it is the day of the week they do a specific task that would suck to do while being soaked. Maybe they are doing weekly PMs (Preventative Maintenance), which would suck crawling around under checking the underside and getting rocks/pebbles stuck all over you.
Yep, but now you can plot your revenge.
"Oh, PVT Prankster, it's 1659 hours on Friday; I forgot to tell you, the 1SG swapped our Staff Duty Runner shift; you now have duty in one minute. Here is some water to stay hydrated. Seeya on Monday!"
You do realize it's just water right? You sound like a psychopath 100%
Edit: downvote all you want but dude literally sounds like the type of person who would lose it over someone accidentally pulling into his driveway. "You didn't ask! Now you find out!"
Not disagreeing with the thermos retaliation being an overreaction, but having a pool of what I assume to be stagnant rain water from a canopy out in the elements dumped on you sounds pretty gross than "it's just water".
Yeah I'm a germaphobe sue me.
Fuck around and find out. Don't pull pranks on people if you don't know how they'll react.
Maybe getting his shit rocked with a metal thermos will reach him a valuable lesson.
No? They absolutely do not drill empathy out of you lol. Too many of y’all have clearly never been in the military.
Where in the world did you get that nonsense from? Movies?
Yes, from movies. Except that’s not even a good excuse. Band of Brothers and a host of other movies and mini series’s show just how committed troops can be to killing an evil enemy, then turn on a dime and show immense empathy when they, you know, come across a concentration camp full of victims.
Everyone remembers the battle scenes and too many forget the care given the innocent.
im pretty sure that there are women that thirst as much if not more if a hot guy would get his shirt wet, and there was a bunch of women looking at you and your wet shirt.
With unchecked sexual harassment, overall readiness and effectiveness of military units are compromised, as morale and cohesion are crucial for successful operations.
Sexual harassment can create divisions within the unit, leading to factions and cliques. This divisiveness can disrupt unity and hinder collective action.
The last thing Marines wanna do is have a lack of trust or cohesion in the field. That can get you killed.
> aren't a normal military force
Yeah, they're troops with less money given Hammie downs that have the absolute best PR department that makes this shit look cool. There may be 5% of the USMC that can be labeled a devil dog lol
Marines aren't anything special, just like the Army isn't anything special.
That water on top is not clean. She's going to have to go back and wash up before changing. That shit ain't funny if they were on a schedule for the day.
For those non-military civilians that are confused:
The canvas coverings on the trailers/vehicles allow for water to pool in the top when it rains.
When the guy knocked on the trailer, there were other Soldiers inside that pushed the canvas covering upward, making all of the water spill over the top. It happens with tents and other structures that use similar materials.
Yes, it's juvenile; these are among many of harmless pranks that young Soldiers tend to pull on each at the early ranks E1-E4. To be fair, the water up there can get pretty nasty if it's been sitting for a while. So hopefully that was fresh rainfall from the night prior.

Thank you for explaining. Heretofore I had never understood the concept of water pooling, or pranks. I go forward an enlightened man, and better for it.
Hehe, touche.
There were people in the comments calling this "sexual assault," and wondering where they hid the "bucket of water."
Some folks can be surprisingly slow.
I'm scared to say, but this is a whoosh, right? Like, this is so incredibly clear that it's two service members playing a prank on a third member, what with the bump signal as the first one clears, that it's water being pushed up and off the tarp roof of the 6x, that pranks like this are super common in service, that he half runs while she starts wagging her bottle at him... Like, just super obvious in every way...
It wasn’t so obvious to me like I didn’t know that water could come rushing out of a truck like that. For me it brought up so many questions: why is there so much water in a truck? How did the first soldier who hit the side of the truck know that water was going to come rushing out seconds later? What did they do with these water trucks? Has anyone thought to put this water in a sealed container so that it doesn’t come rushing out at the wrong moment? I hope the American taxpayer get some answers here
And it's almost certainly sexual harassment to boot. Like they just happened to douse what is probably one of the few, if not the only, female member of that unit while she's wearing nothing more than a t-shirt. So, the 3 or more other folks in on the joke were thinking what? "Hilarious wet t-shirt competition of 1" right? Plu-leeze... 🙄
>And it's almost certainly sexual harassment to boot.
There's always one that creates some insane backstory to justify themselves being offended on the Internet...
I’m gonna be honest. I don’t get how so many people didn’t get a heavily sarcastic comment was replied with another heavily sarcastic comment. I get it’s text but in these instances it’s so obvious.
The mental gymnastics you’re going through to try and seem right is astounding lol. Even the guy I replied to deleted his shit or blocked me for pointing it out
I went to yearly M-60 machine gun school when I was in the AF and the guys loved to prank me like this. Their favorite thing was to throw clods of dirt at the firing range portable potty any time I went in. The noise was deafening. I got the last laugh though - I graduated with honors and most of those donkeys flunked out 😆
That's the majority of most militaries... Young people, fresh out of highschool.
But don't get it twisted, these young men and women can pull juvenile pranks on each other right now, but will display the utmost courage and bravery in combat, and die for each other, while fighting on your behalf tomorrow.
Oh it wasn't meant to be a serious criticism on their work ethics and all that. I just found it funny that for something like military service you'd expect there to be a lot of disciplines and such as a public image, but when it comes to goofing off they're just like grade school children teasing each other for attention.
Still thinking that luxury comes without a cost... You might not like the way the meal is made, but the meal has to be made nonetheless.
Ask Ukraine what happens when the enemy makes it to your doorstep, and they decide they want to come in.
The canvas coverings on the trailer allow for water to pool in the top when it rains.
When the guy knocked on the trailer, there were Soldiers inside that pushed the canvas covering upward, making all of the water spill over the top.
It's only funny if this sort of thing happens to everyone. If it's just pranks on the one woman on the crew...dudes, get your heads out of each other's asses.
Nope...not offended...that's a great prank...but had to be said cuz if there's only one dude/gal/redneck/minority/nerd/etc getting shit on over and over while everyone else is laughing, that's the origin story ~~for~~of super villains or workplace shooters. We've got to look out for this stuff man...pranks that aren't spread across a whole crew are just bullying and that shit can end badly.
That's fair, but did it have to be said because a female Soldier was the recipient of the prank? Or do you provide such advice on every prank video you've ever watched on the Internet?
You may be a genuinely caring person, so I'm not ruling that out. However, it seems like people are making an effort to make this video seem like a sexist joke, when in reality, these are common pranks played on men and women between the grades of E1-E4. Yes, they are juvenile, I agree.
I get how some pranks can be funny, but what’s comedic about this? If the intent is to make someone upset and deal with it idk if that makes this funny or just harassment.
I know what happens on Army bases (mostly nothing, with a very small percentage of criminals that deserve UCMJ), and still find it funny. Sounds like you are being dramatic.

I just picture this as motor pool monday at 915 and you are soaking wet until lunch. I'd be furious.
what is motor pool monday?
Monday’s is usually the designated day most units will go to the motor pool and do vehicle maintenance. Hence, motorpool monday.
“Maintenance”
ie turn the vehicle on and sit in the cab for an hour and mark that it's mission capable so you can go to lunch.
*Walks half way around a humvee, pulls phone out of pocket half way, laughs at a tik tok video, puts phone back in pocket, looks around, no NCO’s around* ‘Yeah good enough, gonna go take a smoke break now’
Don’t forget the exhaust smother start cover
Yeah and you use the green dispatch book to cover it, hahahah
Because you already marked the faults 3 months ago, and what a surprise, the same unfixed faults are still present.
They need an exhaust sample before they can start repairs, obviously...
And Jesus Christ himself won’t save you if you don’t bring some blinker fluid right this minute!
‘Hey top, they said I gotta come here for a pricky eight form from you. You have any lying around? Oh, btw, I couldn’t find any grid squares either. The supply sergeant said we didn’t have any. Do you know when we can get some more?’
“Private, bring me some grid squares!” *me, 10 years ago, cutting up a military map to give the grid squares to my TL*

Its called a Motor POOL and you don't expect to be wet? /s
Motorpool monday....you just brought me back 10 years. Those were the days.
I want to see the rest of the video. 😂 Her: *you fucking!* Him: *Wasn’t me, wasn’t me* Her: *Bitch! I’m gonna…*
Threw the thermos right at the back of his head then said it wasn't her
Heard the words that I told her (It wasn't me) Heard the scream get louder (It wasn't me) She stayed until it was over
Ah yeah because getting hit by a metal projectile in the back of the head is the same as a prank with some water falling on someone. 🤦
Yelling it's just a prank is the way to go
It's not rape if you shout surprise first /s
Seems reasonable. One person didn't ask for it and one person did - fuck around and find out.
You do realize it's just water right? You sound like a psychopath 100% Edit: downvote all you want but dude literally sounds like the type of person who would lose it over someone accidentally pulling into his driveway. "You didn't ask! Now you find out!"

It. Was. A. Joke.
They are 100% psychopath, like wtf. These bunch of losers don't have friends, so they don't know how to interact with people
Fuck around and find out. Don't pull pranks on people if you don't know how they'll react. Maybe getting his shit rocked with a metal thermos will reach him a valuable lesson.
I'd like to know more. I mean he got her wet already.
She claimed I got her wet from that truck (It wasn’t me). —Shaggy
It was totally you
It was his buddy in the truck
He tapped on the truck to signal his buddy to do it. It was both.
As an ex-military man, you learn quick that rank has its privileges... ...to be assholes!
You don't have to be in the army to learn that. You only need a dysfunctional family or a job.
Stop it!! I’m getting wet
[удалено]
all this time she was standing there, she never took her eyes off me
lol I also love that she doesn't care who pushed the water off.....snitches get stitches
It wasn't. There was someone inside.
It was. He punched the truck to signal the inside man
Obviously he made the signal. But the man in the truck is who is responsible.
Or inside woman.
But nobody farted... Wait
I did.
Instinctually pulls out cell phone to dry
Ah that makes more sense. I thought she straight up pulled her gun on his ass
Water pranks are a lot worse when they have the potential to ruin your pocket computer that costs hundreds of dollars.
A pocket computer worth hundreds is waterproof these days
Eh, most are waterproof when new but the seals break down over time.
No way they get affected by water like this though, being submerged would be another matter.
Yea but this is a splash while the phone is in her pocket. 999/1000 the phone is perfectly fine.
The game is afoot.
Dammit Tarantino, we don't need to know about your fetish.
A game is the foot!
The foot is a game!
Game foot is a the!
A is the game foot!
This Foe = MAGA Toe!
Me to my sister after Mom tells us to get along.
Ah yes. This is EXCELLENT level of military fucking around. These jokes were the best.
Less funny when you’re a girl and everyone is always getting your shirt wet as a prank
Yeah, her body language wasn't quite 'haha, you guys got me', more like 'Goddammit, this shit again'.
[удалено]
I dunno. Some of us have this weird thing called *empathy*.
pfffffffffft, not in the military
You’re clearly not prior military.
Military is the business of killing people, empathy is not high on the required traits list
Don't they drill that out of you in basic? I think they call it indoctrination.
No? They absolutely do not drill empathy out of you lol. Too many of y’all have clearly never been in the military. Where in the world did you get that nonsense from? Movies?
Yes, from movies. Except that’s not even a good excuse.

It was a joke, take stick out of ass
Oh... *"Some dude were just having fun, stop worry about how it affects the victim negatively and take the abuser side for the fun sake".*
Yeah, this is sexual harassment, and needs to be reported.
Then don't enlist. Equal rights, equal fights.
Just if you wonder why you're down voted: and equal amount of "jokes" at your expenses?
im pretty sure that there are women that thirst as much if not more if a hot guy would get his shirt wet, and there was a bunch of women looking at you and your wet shirt.
Yes but that’s not how the military works. It’s about 80% guys.
Pretty sure these are Marines, and Marines aren’t a normal military force. You don’t get the nickname Devil Dog by being soft.
With unchecked sexual harassment, overall readiness and effectiveness of military units are compromised, as morale and cohesion are crucial for successful operations. Sexual harassment can create divisions within the unit, leading to factions and cliques. This divisiveness can disrupt unity and hinder collective action. The last thing Marines wanna do is have a lack of trust or cohesion in the field. That can get you killed.
>You don’t get the nickname Devil Dog by being soft. Like 85% of the ex-marines I’ve ever met are the most sensitive dudes I’ve ever met, lmao.
> aren't a normal military force Yeah, they're troops with less money given Hammie downs that have the absolute best PR department that makes this shit look cool.

Hehe, touche. There were people in the comments calling this "sexual assault," and wondering where they hid the "bucket of water." Some folks can be surprisingly slow.
Lol yeah some people see a woman with a wet T-shirt and think it can only be one thing :p eedjits
A non-military civilian confused by a tarp holding water is just called a moron.
I think it may have been more like, "how did his tap on the side of the trailer cause all that water to erupt from the top?"
Nah bro, only a moron wouldn't understand that part either.
/r/iamverysmart
Long weight.
if you watch closely you can see that there is somebody inside the truck move the cover.
You have a keen eye, I never would have noticed that
I'm scared to say, but this is a whoosh, right? Like, this is so incredibly clear that it's two service members playing a prank on a third member, what with the bump signal as the first one clears, that it's water being pushed up and off the tarp roof of the 6x, that pranks like this are super common in service, that he half runs while she starts wagging her bottle at him... Like, just super obvious in every way...
> is so incredibly clear that it's two service members Three service members as the guy filming apparently knew what was coming
I'd like to think they have a group text, and each time it starts with "it rained last night!" followed by "ill check the truck!"
There was heavy sarcasm implied in my comment lol
tbh the sarcasm didn't come through. If you had added 'Wow' at the beginning, that might have done it
Sarcasm don't express well in text, who would have thought?
As heavy as a truck.
i think they thought him bumping the truck caused the water to fall.
> Like, just super obvious in every way... Yeah, it's so super obvious that it's almost like it was equally obvious sarcasm.
It wasn’t so obvious to me like I didn’t know that water could come rushing out of a truck like that. For me it brought up so many questions: why is there so much water in a truck? How did the first soldier who hit the side of the truck know that water was going to come rushing out seconds later? What did they do with these water trucks? Has anyone thought to put this water in a sealed container so that it doesn’t come rushing out at the wrong moment? I hope the American taxpayer get some answers here
It was rainwater that was pooled up in the cargo cover that covers the truck. (Unless of course the perpetrators put the water there themselves)
And the one recording makes it three.
And it's almost certainly sexual harassment to boot. Like they just happened to douse what is probably one of the few, if not the only, female member of that unit while she's wearing nothing more than a t-shirt. So, the 3 or more other folks in on the joke were thinking what? "Hilarious wet t-shirt competition of 1" right? Plu-leeze... 🙄
>And it's almost certainly sexual harassment to boot. There's always one that creates some insane backstory to justify themselves being offended on the Internet...
[удалено]
I’m gonna be honest. I don’t get how so many people didn’t get a heavily sarcastic comment was replied with another heavily sarcastic comment. I get it’s text but in these instances it’s so obvious.
Because more people are idiots than are talented at sarcasm, and people that are bad at sarcasm just sound like genuine idiots.
wooosh... I think you missed the sarcasm in the previous post.
They laid out a legitimate explanation of what happened. How is that sarcasm?
It was clearly sarcasm and you did the thing you're accusing others of. What a self-own.
The mental gymnastics you’re going through to try and seem right is astounding lol. Even the guy I replied to deleted his shit or blocked me for pointing it out
The red circle we deserve
that knock was a signal to their friends inside
No, he is obviously a military wizard!
He didn’t spring the ambush. But he did lead her into the trap zone, and he did give the signal that she was in place.
For some reason I thought the truck was transporting a whale or something and it just got scared, splashing water out of its tank
> For some reason I thought the truck was transporting a whale or something This is Whale Call with R. Lee Ermey.
I mean could just be a two person prank then. The pound on the side of the truck just lets them know to move the cover
I thought they were transporting seals or manatees or something and the dude disturbed it to make it move around
"Of course you know, this means war." -- B. Bunny
At least own up to what you did, private!
Pretty tame joke for the Marines.
not kidding here, they are now banned from Michaels drawing crafts isles.
Honestly. No blood. No NJPs. I'm not saying that it wasn't funny, but Marines idea of "harmless" fun has quite a wide definition.
Welcome to the army.
So there's a dude just waiting and giggling under the cover 🤣🙏🏻
The funny part is even joking around they’re training to kill each other, that is an amazing ambush setup.
Okinawa Japan I can recognize those beige concrete walls with red roofs and those stupid little lights anywhere. Bet the water felt good, though.
I went to yearly M-60 machine gun school when I was in the AF and the guys loved to prank me like this. Their favorite thing was to throw clods of dirt at the firing range portable potty any time I went in. The noise was deafening. I got the last laugh though - I graduated with honors and most of those donkeys flunked out 😆
So what you're saying is the military scene is just grade schoolers with guns?
That's the majority of most militaries... Young people, fresh out of highschool. But don't get it twisted, these young men and women can pull juvenile pranks on each other right now, but will display the utmost courage and bravery in combat, and die for each other, while fighting on your behalf tomorrow.
Oh it wasn't meant to be a serious criticism on their work ethics and all that. I just found it funny that for something like military service you'd expect there to be a lot of disciplines and such as a public image, but when it comes to goofing off they're just like grade school children teasing each other for attention.
>fighting on your behalf tomorrow. Still buying into all the military propaganda
Still thinking that luxury comes without a cost... You might not like the way the meal is made, but the meal has to be made nonetheless. Ask Ukraine what happens when the enemy makes it to your doorstep, and they decide they want to come in.
Bravo!
Imagine that was his nco
That girl is going to own them one day.
Sksksksks
RIP
Oki?
They sound Irish to me..
LOL, even the toughest guys know to run from an angry woman. 😂
What the…
Lol he signaled to the guy inside the truck with the tap. "Wasn't me"... BULLSHIT!!!
It was you I would slam that bottle against your head
It wasn’t me!!! 🤣😂🤣
Got the timing right
I don’t quite understand where the water came from…?
Oh wait must’ve been trapped on top of the tarp and someone pushed upward
Next
What's going on here?
Yah where's all this water coming from? Seems more than what could be done with buckets?
The canvas coverings on the trailer allow for water to pool in the top when it rains. When the guy knocked on the trailer, there were Soldiers inside that pushed the canvas covering upward, making all of the water spill over the top.
It's only funny if this sort of thing happens to everyone. If it's just pranks on the one woman on the crew...dudes, get your heads out of each other's asses.
You just woke up looking to be offended...
Nope...not offended...that's a great prank...but had to be said cuz if there's only one dude/gal/redneck/minority/nerd/etc getting shit on over and over while everyone else is laughing, that's the origin story ~~for~~of super villains or workplace shooters. We've got to look out for this stuff man...pranks that aren't spread across a whole crew are just bullying and that shit can end badly.
That's fair, but did it have to be said because a female Soldier was the recipient of the prank? Or do you provide such advice on every prank video you've ever watched on the Internet?

Army wet t-shirt.
I get how some pranks can be funny, but what’s comedic about this? If the intent is to make someone upset and deal with it idk if that makes this funny or just harassment.
I love this sub, but this is 100% not funny if you know what happens on Army bases.
I know what happens on Army bases (mostly nothing, with a very small percentage of criminals that deserve UCMJ), and still find it funny. Sounds like you are being dramatic.
Hahaha! He is terrified! Ruuuun!

she got wet.
Smells like sexual harassment... Art 15 inbound...
Massive barracks bunny vibes from her
eww
I didn't even know that in the army there exists wet t-shirt contests 😱
