Is there a reason it is NCMI instead of NMCI?

Uh....hmm...the only reason it is NCMI is because i'm and idiot and can't type. Begin Travis...BEGIN!!!

How about POA?

NMCI N=NO M=MORE C=CONDUCTIVITY I=INTERNET

Plan Of Atack

Position of Attention

I see, a POA is a little different than a POS. Okay, what about "deuce gear." Nobody, but nobody has deuce gear except Uncle Sam's Misguided Children. [IMG]http://i30.photobucket.com/albums/c330/Prowlerguy/Poster-Compromise.jpg[/IMG]

aaah deuce gear, I was proud to wear what I think must have been Chesty's LBV at boot. Apparently these are going out of use and people are using the MOLLE system on their flak jackets, something that caused me to ask "so ... er ... how are you going to change your clip now" at some recent NBC training. So kids there are 3 more for you, LBV, MOLLE and NBC

How about rubber lady aka rubber bitch?

LBV: Load Bearing Vest MOLLE: I know what it is, but not what it's name means. NBC: Nuclear-Biological-Chemical?

Good call Blake, MOLLE : MOdular Lightweight Load-carrying Equipment

Of course, we went from ALICE, to MOLLE, now we're up to ILBE

I think I have a couple of ALICE packs in my garage.

Brevet Frocked Wetting down Going to lots next month so that's why I thought of it...

NJP Big Chicken Dinner

Good knowledge, but where are the kids [V], I used to love this section

NMCI= when you have an issue with your logon or system in general, call us at technical support and we'll put you on hold for 4 hours and 48 minutes(YES. I timed it) and then tell you that we can't fix your problem at our level.

AAAV= Advanced Amphibious Assault Vehicle, CAB= Combat Assault Battalion.

 

Since I find myself currently in the unique position of working with the Tanker community. Here are some acronyms from the Armor side. 

 

EFV, ABV, CVC, TNB, VMP, FWMP, SMP, RORS, CDB, LMS, LDCS, HLA

 

Some of these are pretty new, I don't expect to may to get them but go ahead and tkae a stab at it. 

 

EFV = Expeditionary Fighting Vehicle

ABV = Assault Breaching Vehicle? (not sure)

CVC = can't remember this one but I refuse to look it up cause I know it'll come to me

TNB = no luck either remembering or online search

VMP = something to do with aerial recon and/or photography?

FWMP = Full Width Mine Plow

SMP = Single Marine Program (don't know the armor related one)

RORS = Rapid Ordnance Removal System

CDB = Control Distribution Box (looked it up)

LMS = Land Management Suite or System (heard both, not sure of the diff.)

LDCS = Linear Demolition ChargeS

HLA = Found out it's a designation for system used in communicating between Marine vehicles but damn if I could find what it stands for!

Not to bad!

 

Try again on

 

CVC, VMP, SMP, CDB, LMS, and HLA. The S in LDCS is for system but I'll give you that one. Let me know if you need help. 

Alright I've been busy so there hasn't been much free time lately BUT finally now I can get back to this. I gotta turn to the 'net at this point but here goes nothing.

CVC = Combat Vehicle Crewman

VMP = Marine Patrol Squadron (this one's a toughie)

SMP = Hate concede defeat but this one's got me 100% in the dark ( I can only find Single Marine Program)

CDB = Control Distribution Box was the best I could find (and not even what the box goes to)

LMS = Lightweight Multipurpose Shelter, mounts on a HMMWV.

HLA = High Level Architecture? Used for inter and intra-vehicle comms? If that's not it then I am not sure.

LDCS = Unfortunately Linear Demo Charge was the only thing I could find that was armor related. Don't know this one either.

 Although I gotta say after looking into the armor side of things and seeing how interesting it is only makes forming an MOS wishlist even more difficult...if I ever get to that point (or if they even take the list into consideration anyway  )

VMP= Vehicle Master Power

SMP= Surface Mine Plow

CDB= Combat Dozer Blade

LMS= Lane Marking System

HLA= High Lift Adaptor, Used to connect one of the 4 attachments (FWMP,SMP,RORS,CDB) to the ABV

TNB= Turret Networks Box 

You had LDCS correct the first time...you just didn't get the S for system. Like I said before not bad at all. Some of these are old most are new.
