Ive seen in pictures and photos that when some people graduate Air Force BMT they graduate with no rank or insignia on their shoulder. I am enlisted with a 6 year contract, Air Traffic Control. How could I graduate with at least one stripe as an Airman on my shoulder in BMT? Any help and advice would be GREATLY appreciated.

My boyfriend is graduating from MCRD San Diego, and becoming a United State Marine.
When I go down to the Depot, I would like to address the Marines by rank, but am unsure if it is appropriate because I am not in the military.

Would my gesture be seen as respectful, or disrespectful?
These Marines will mainly be Drill Instructors.

AJ asked:

Say you’re in a public bathroom. In what order would you rank the following sound effects in order of most embarrasing to make to least embarrasing to make?

And then please rank the same sound effects by most disgusting to hear to least disgusting to hear.

Do not count smell.

Passing gas, urinating, defecating, changing a feminine pad (assuming it’s as audible as the others from rustling, ripping adhesive, creak of recepticle, etc)

For males of course the last item would not apply. At least I HOPE not!

How can I properly rank a win / loss ratio while taking into account the number of matches that take place?

curious asked:

I’d like to find a way to properly rank items that have competed against each other. Sorting by percentage alone is not an option as lots of items will have only been in one match.
Well the problem is that the difference between the number of matches could be very pronounced. In my case there could be items with 100 matches and items with just 1, and a whole mess in between.

What i’d like is for some way to know whether a 4 out of 6 team is better then a 20 out of 30 team.
