Just a quick warning, this will have mention of suicide, sexual assault, physical abuse, and psychological abuse. This is a lot of messed up information to process at once, if you need to, take a break to get your mind off this.

This is a real story, that is currently ongoing.

I would just like an outside view of what has happened and would like to help others be aware of what happened to me. But, at this point, I am also questioning my sanity and memory and have genuine concerns.

I left for basic training two years ago on Aug 15, 2022. On the night of Aug 14th, 2022, my husband proceeded to get wasted while we were at my parent's house for a small going away party and then proceeded to assault me sexually. I won't go into too much detail, so here are the main points-

My husband is active, and we have only been married for three months at the time. He was, and still is stationed on Fort Hood. I had known him for four years before getting married and three of those years we had been together.

I went into a combat MOS, so I did both AIT and basic all in one, which is called OSUT.

We drove back to our home state so I could leave for basic. I'm in the Guard and was in my state's National Guard, at the time.

The day before I left to basic, we drove to my parents' house. That night some of my siblings came over. Some people were drinking, but I did not drink because I did not want to risk being sick the next day or getting sent home.

Me and my husband previously agreed to just cuddle that night because I did not see sex as a loving or comforting gesture.

We went to bed around two in the morning and slept in my old bedroom at my parent's house.

I was trying to sleep, and he was continuously asking to have sex one last time.

I told him no for a whole hour.

After an hour it began to get physical, and I realized it would happen no matter what I said or did. The longer I tried to get him to stop, the longer it would take, and it was already three in the morning. So, I told him to do whatever he wanted, and he did.

Some details are necessary for later.

The next day, I did not remember the night before at all.

When he dropped me off at MEPS, I had an hour or two before I had to check-in. I told him I wanted to hang out and spend time with him. All he wanted to do was go home. He did not even want to speak with me and would not participate in conversation.

I went to basic and did not remember until a few months in while I was thinking about how odd he acted when dropping me off. I wrote a letter explaining how upset I was with him for not talking to me that night but did not mention the SA at all since our drills sometimes read letters and such. I never mentioned it to a single soul and only spoke about it once I returned to Fort Hood with my husband.

I questioned him about it, but he only cried and apologized. Telling me that he did not remember it and we agreed, at the time, it was just an accident, and he was too drunk. We also agreed to NOT have sex until I was ready.

The next day, Dec 3rd, 2022, we went to a military ball. I only remember five or ten minutes of this ball; when I stood up for the national anthem, I realized I couldn't stand, the world was turning and I immediately needed to go to the restroom.

After that moment, there is nothing. All that I remember is him telling me to get off the ground because people were looking and were going to call the MPs. And him telling me to "just breathe".

I woke up the next day with no clothes on and still covered in vomit.

The next day he told me I drank too much and that he had to stay up all night making sure I was breathing. He told me that he was terrified that I was going to die, yet he did not take me to the hospital. Along with this, he let me know that I had been so drunk that I could not stand, was continuously puking, had lost my glasses, and had just generally been an embarrassment. His friends would joke about this night, and he liked to use it to embarrass me in front of my family and other friends. Despite me telling him that I did not want my family to know about it.

The weekend after I told his friend what he had done to me before I left. I told him to never speak to anyone about it, which he did not and likely still has not.

Other than him, I told a future roommate about this, also a man.

Neither reported it nor questioned me about it again. Never asked if I was okay, His friend left that night and never talked to me again. He did not come back to our apartment for six months.

I told my sister this past Christmas but downplayed the entire thing so that she would not hate him.

Here are a few small details of the year and a half before I left him.

For around four to six months after returning from basic, I was extremely suicidal and would usually go up to our apartment alone on weekends when we had small parties at our neighbors.

I would tell everyone I was just going to feed the cats. Which my husband bought for a while. When he no longer bought that, I would tell him I had to use the bathroom or just wanted to pet our cats.

The only thing I would do up there was sit on my bed with a gun and think. Sometimes I would sit somewhere safe and have a panic attack.

My cats would always come to me meowing and rolling around in my lap or beside me. Which was not normal for them. They were also the only reason I am still here today.

I told him about how bad I was getting. He told me I couldn't get therapy because "he didn't want to get in trouble".

I did not know how Tricare worked and did not want him to get in trouble at this time. I did not want to ruin his life.

I never reported anything until I had already left him.

The only person besides my husband I had to speak with, was a roommate we got months after I got back from basic.

We would drink every weekend and sometimes during the week.

This was the only time I spoke with anyone besides him. I was rarely alone with anyone, and he usually was hovering.

There were only about three or four times that I spoke with my roommate alone. All of which we were both drunk. We only spoke about the SA once throughout those times.

I eventually began to have feelings for this roommate. Which I eventually accepted was going nowhere. I understood he was not the best person, and that it would only hurt me further. Among other things, I was staying loyal to my husband and waiting for the feelings to pass.

I chalked it up to being a crush that was from anxiety. It had happened before, and I knew it would pass.

I NEVER wanted to be with this person. All I wanted was to be alone and have therapy for the SA.

Originally, I believed that the SA would just be forgotten, and I could forgive my husband. This is what he told me. "That I just needed to heal."

I would go through weeks where I hated him. Some, I was fine. Some, I was only depressed. And others where I felt as if I was trapped.

He would not listen to me if I told him I had boundaries.

He would smack my ass; I told him it made me feel unloved and like an object.

He told me he did not see any other way to show his love. "My love language is physical touch."

I told him not to do it 5 more times, and the last time I blew up on him. He told me that I was overreacting, that I was doing what he "wasn't allowed" to do to me, but he didn't do it again until close to when I left him.

I would tell him he needed to control his emotions. He struggled with anger problems.

He told me it was just work. That he was better than he used to be, but he just acted worse after that.

(He would scream at me for the smallest things and would slam his fists on things. Once even punching a hole in the wall when he and our roommate argued once.)

Everything would somehow be turned into my fault. Most times I completely understood and believed it was my fault.

On Feb 14th, 2024, I told him I was done. He had been away at gunnery for two weeks and I finally felt sane for once. All the 'mood swings' I was having with him were suddenly gone and my mood had improved a lot. I knew that what would be best for my mental health was to leave, get therapy, and never be with anyone for a while. I did not care that I had no money to support myself. I did not care if I was homeless. Anything, in my mind, was better than staying.

When I told him I could no longer handle the SA and that I was leaving him, he only then told me that I could get therapy and that we would work through it. So, I told him I did not want to deal with his anger issues any longer. He told me he would get therapy, and everything would be alright.

No matter what I told him, there was a way to magically make it better.

So, to get him to hopefully hate me, to finally stop asking "What else" I told him that I had feelings for our roommate. Big mistake, but he told me that was fine, and we could work through it.

The next Friday, we had a small party, I don't remember what for. It was honestly just a reason to drink for me. But I went to walk outside, saw it was just him and the roommate, and immediately went to close the door because they both went silent and just stared at me. My husband told me it was okay to come out, so I did. He then made me tell the roommate about "how I felt".

The roommate wanted to leave, but my husband told him that this was his home too, so he should stay. So, he did.

I went to our bedroom, curled up beside the bed, and had a panic attack. My husband followed and shut and locked the door. I asked him why he made me tell him. He told me he thought it would help. I asked why it would have helped while hyperventilating and sobbing. He began to scream at me and tell me that if I hadn't wanted to tell him I wouldn't have, it was my choice, and I had WANTED to tell him. So, I knew it was my fault.

The next day I told my husband I was done. I had no trust left for him and felt like an awful wife.

The next month was a blur. I couldn't eat, or sleep, there was a pain in my chest that felt as if my chest was caving in, and someone was crushing my ribs to tear out my heart. I would go on walks to calm down my heart, to finally get it to slow down, but nothing worked. My husband drank more, constantly played songs about people cheating, and told me he had 'changed'. The first day he helped me clean for the first time, all it did was piss me off. The help slowly went away, but his anger issues seemed completely gone. I knew they weren't.

Me and the roommate only spoke if we were drinking, otherwise, I never looked at him and usually stayed away from everyone.

Me and my husband eventually agreed to see other people. He told me he had downloaded a few dating apps. But couldn't find anyone because they weren't me. I only spoke with the roommate when drinking and only spoke with him three times. I told my husband when we had eventually held hands, and cuddled, and kissed. But didn't tell him that when our roommate had kissed me, he never pulled away and we had made out.

My husband kicked him out in March after our other roommate had told him. He and his wife had gone into the bathroom in the hallway multiple times and took videos, in the audio you could hear people kissing. I didn't know these existed until a month or so ago. My husband told me that our other roommate said it sounded like we had sex, I told him that I hadn't. The other roommate asked if we had sex, I told him no, we had only made out. I'm pretty sure now that both of those interactions were recorded in hopes that I would say we did.

But, after he was kicked out, my husband randomly said to me "I won't tell anyone about you and O, if you don't tell anyone about what I did to you."

All I said was ok. At this point, I hated myself and knew without a doubt that all the pain I had been through was deserved, even if it was in the past.

My husband told me that my twin had been texting him about how disappointed she was in me and that she couldn't believe I was putting him through this. She had told me that she used to look up to me and didn't know what to think of me now. Had told her friend about everything and told me they both laughed about it because it "sounded like a fucked-up book" and that I should keep her updated because her friend wanted to know more.

So, I believed what my husband told me without a doubt.

On March 5th, 2024, my husband went on a date with a girl named Jessie. He had been talking to her for some time and I told him to try to have a good time and hopefully move on. He made her gumbo, something I had been asking for years, but always somehow barely missed out on. He told me nothing happened. I spoke with Jessie months ago; she told me that they kissed that night.

The next day I went on a date with our old roommate, despite my husband saying I could date anyone BUT him. We went to see a movie and held hands. He had wanted to go to a hotel originally, I wouldn't say I liked that idea at all and didn't feel safe with it. I still don't know if he was joking, but I went home afterward. I wouldn't say I liked the date; everything felt like a goodbye and like I was being watched. There was a pit in my stomach the whole time.

My husband asked why I was home so early; I told him the movie was over. He seemed angry that I hadn't gone anywhere else.

The next day my husband reported him to his command. A no-contact order was put into place on March 7th. That night he told me that his command said I should be on the streets for what I'd done, that it didn't matter that we had agreed to see other people, I had cheated, his date with Jessie didn't matter because they hadn't "slept in the same bed". My SA didn't matter because his 1SG had something similar happen with his wife and she thought the same thing. The story of what his command said to him changed constantly and he could not tell me the names of who was there. Telling me it all happened so fast, but he had saved the old roommate's whole career. By CHOOSING the no-contact order.

But "everything would be fine as long as we were happy together". So, I got back with him, which only lasted a day.

He kept seeing the girl and told me they were friends. He admitted a month and a half later that they had sex down the hall from me. Then admitted two weeks later he had been lying for two months and they had been in some kind of relationship the whole time. The first time they had sex was the weekend after the no-contact order went into place. (Not that he told me that, he said he couldn't remember when it was. Jessie knew though. That and the night they had sex down the hall, he tried forcing himself on her after telling her what he did to me, which made her freak out and have a panic attack.)

Everyone I knew hated me from March 7th onward. The only person I spoke to was Remington, my husband, and the other roommate, Hinton. I was scared to go outside, in fear someone from his platoon would see me and harm me. I was scared my unit would find out what I'd done. I did not talk to a single soul but Remington.

Hinton only told me I needed to forgive Remington. Telling me "When Jasmine cheated on me, I just had to forgive her." By the way, this girl baby-trapped him. Got him drunk so he wouldn't use protection. That was the only reason they were married. He told me that when his dad would yell at his mom, she told him she was done, so he stopped, and she stayed. His dad beat him after that and took everything out on him instead.

In May Remington went to Poland. I got therapy in April, after going to a marriage counselor who told me that I seemed angry. This is after I told him about the SA and Remington seeing Jessie. But the therapist told me I just needed to forgive him. I started medication soon after Remington left for Poland.

On July 1st, 2024, I reported my husband for sexual assault. CID recorded him admitting to the SA over the phone, as well as, denying me therapy.

A no-contact order went into place only days later. Recently I found out it had been an MPO this whole time and only got a copy from his command weeks ago. It's mid-October.

Here's what I've found out since. (I have his old phone, and everything is connected)

I was never given a victim advocate, SARC, SVC, or FAP member to help. I got an SVC and Victim advocate this month because I kept bugging them. I was supposed to be given all of this at least, three days after reporting.

The night of the mil ball, he likely drugged and SAed me again. That or just SAed me. There were three videos on his phone of that night where he thought it was hilarious that I was out of it. They were videos of my face; we were lying the same way we had the night before I left for basic.

This completely contradicted what he told me his reaction was.

He also called his friend Remling to make sure it was normal that I wasn't breathing.

I now know the SA 100% did happen. He kept trying to convince me it didn't

My watch recorded that my heart rate was 211 bpm that night. It stayed above 100 bpm for 20 hours straight. (at 200 is where people usually begin to have heart attacks, it's never been that high before or since)

The people he kept telling me "Didn't hate" me, did in fact, hate me.

Hinton and his wife had been telling everyone I cheated on him. Also, Jasmine, his wife, hated me the whole time because she thought I wanted her husband?????

Remling was also telling everyone I had cheated on him.

Along with this he purposely hurt me multiple times. Once making me smack my head on the center console of his car by having asked for something on the floor, break-checking me three times. Every single time, it hurt worse because he kept breaking harder. When I told everyone, it hurt, they just laughed and ignored me.

The other time. I got pulled into him and Remington wrestling. Remling choked me, it hurt. I had a panic attack, and he allowed my husband to pin me to the ground as I tried to push him away and was telling him not to rape me again, to not touch me, to go away. Then allowed him to carry me to my room alone. All while I was still screaming at him to put me down.

His unit only contacted me because I told CID he stole my money, which he did.

This was when he had just gotten a 30k bonus. I wasn't being given BAH, and only had National Guard pay (which isn't much) to support my animals, myself, and anything I needed for the house.

The AC has been out since before he left, the hot water is out because propane is leaving from the water heater, and the truck I was left with can no longer get above 55. The tags went out in August, and I was told a month prior, by his command, that his mom was taking care of it. My name isn't on the title, and I had no registration or title since it disappeared when one of his friends was 'checking on me'.

Hinton came home early because he was getting out. Remington asked him to take pictures of inside the house for him.

They wanted to be sure that I did not know they were coming.

They knew there was a man at home with me.

He was sent by my unit to take me to the ER because when I found the videos of the mil ball night. It proved Remington had lied about more than I thought. I couldn't handle the weight of what I now knew, and my psychiatrist wanted to give me 40mg of Adderall to help with the suicidal thoughts I was having. Along with this, he upped my Lunesta, which wasn't helping me sleep and I got addicted to it. (The same guy told me he didn't believe my SA was SA. Despite never having been told about it lol). But this lovely concoction made me extremely suicidal, and I told my unit.

He stayed to make sure I was okay afterward, then found out Hinton was coming back and would not contact me about it. He helped me change the locks a day before he came.

Hinton came on an early August Monday at 10 am, with an NCO who was fine with him walking right into my home.

He couldn't unlock the door, took a picture of it and sent it to Remington, then unblocked and called me.

He took pictures of my friend's car and license plate and videos of me and him cleaning dishes.

The NCO stayed in the hallway the entire time, not caring what Hinton was doing.

I reported this to the MPs, CID, Local Police, IG, and his command. He has continued to have people stalk me this entire time. I have seen no move to stop it.

Every single support for victims of SA IAW AR600-20 has done nothing. FAP (Family Advocacy Program) told me that I eventually consented, even after CID decided he likely did do it. My commander told me it was "just a misunderstanding" and that "spouses get angry when soldiers are overseas all the time." When I told my unit SARC that his friends were still stalking me.

Fort Hood sees FAP, the victim advocates, and soldier's command hiding reports of sexual assault and other things completely fine and normal. That and it's fine to them for people to break MPOs and stalk victims of SA.

IG on Fort Hood does nothing, I have no clue what happened to their investigations or what the status is on any of it from their side, it's been months.

His family also just believes he has done nothing wrong and now hates me for ruining his life.

I still have no clue what he has been telling people to make them hate me this much.

While in Poland here are the list of things he has been up to

Getting 2000 dollars' worth of tattoos

one of which was one I drew for him a long time ago and that creeps me out a bit. Especially since it was after I reported him.

Spent around 40-50 dollars on only fans.

Got what I think is tender premium???

There was a payment of a little over 20 and a few more of 2 or 3.

Bought at least one Airbnb solely just to have sex with some girl.

Just spent most, if not all, weekends out partying, on dates, or going on trips.

Despite all of this, has somehow kept up the completely devastated 'she left me' story. It's actually kind of impressive.

Has been telling people he spent his whole 30k bonus on the house and truck back in the US.

Despite having only spent, at most, 200 on the house to fix the AC, which is still broken.

And only 800 on the truck for new tires.

He has been giving me 400-440 every paycheck for groceries, gas, and whatever else I need.

Hasn't had time to help find the original AC company, a shop for the truck, or help just telling his mother I need a new registration for the truck.

The registration went out in August. I was told the month before it was taken care of. Late last month or early this month (Oct) I found out his mom didn't even know. So, his command has been lying to me.

Has had time to ask/tell people to give him updates on what I'm doing/where I'm going.

He knows when I go on post, I have a lot of medical appointments and go on post often. I bring the person from my unit for protection, seeing as I'm still being watched :D.

He knows where my unit is.

He knew the Hotel that my unit had our Dining out at two months ago. Which was basically like a military ball; we just had a change of command.

So, now I have no clue who to trust, can't trust anyone even though I know it is irrational. Can't trust people in uniform, including my unit. I don't trust my memory and am beginning to question if I did make this all up and am just crazy. I feel like a thorn in everyone's side when I try to talk about it. So now I'm just putting it in the hands of Reddit lol

The good news though, after getting out of Darnell's behavioral health, I got a new psychiatrist who finally fixed my medication. She also diagnosed me with PTSD (which is good because the music, voices, and other weird hallucinations are there, and I have nightmares where I wake up trying to fight people who aren't there. Among other things.)

On the active side, I will not be getting BAH, despite being scared out of the house it is being used for. I won't be getting the spousal benefits in a few days, so I don't know how my medication will work. Much less therapy or psychiatrist. I'm just hoping I don't get one like the first guy. I will not be getting a single penny for the fact their soldier and the whole base joined together as a team to give me PTSD. Which is funny but not funny. This isn't even all of it ngl lol.

TL;DR; Fort Hood doing Fort Hood things. Like giving random women who are victims of SA PTSD and allowing Remington Shelton to blackmail and ruin the life of his wife. Army commands kind of just suck, I think. I could be a Karen. Could be losing the singular marble I have left. Not sure, please let me know your thoughts! :D

WIP Wednesday: Between Heaven & Earth, Chapter One

A rough cut of a scene where Eren and Annie interact + worldbuilding

1912

The office was flooded with applications to the Garrison, since it was easier to get into than the Military Police and had the second-lowest mortality rate out of all three branches. It sounded nice, coming from the mouths of recruiters, but even the lowest ranking position in the Garrison was safer than the Scouting Legion. An overabundance of spending on resources with little to show for it but a seventy-five percent mortality rate.

The majority of the Trainee Corps budget went towards ODM equipment, food and space for the cadets as well as horses. Training accidents were infrequent but inevitable. Just like the Warrior Unit, everything else fell by the wayside to make space for more important matters.

When it came to combat, the instructors were teaching fundamentals out of principle. Unarmed combat might buy you a few seconds in a real-life situation. Any criminal could drive the sharp end of a whisky bottle into the newly-made private’s stomach and that would be that. Soldiers were usually more acquainted with ODM gear than a rifle outside of the MPs, who rarely had cause to use them. Why bother teaching this at all, if it wouldn't be utilized? Marley never taught the cadets a skill they wouldn't have to use, especially in the Warrior Unit. Everything they learnt would be reincorporated into their term.

“Hey, Leonhardt!” Braun on Paradis, in Marley, never changed. She stopped pace. “You can’t keep slacking off like this.”

Sucking up to the first cadet who asks for help is not going to make you into a better Warrior than I am. This exercise isn’t for points. You shouldn’t be drawing attention to me in the first place, you hypocrite.

She caught Jaeger’s eye.

Here’s a lesson on what not to do.

Braun, shoving Jaeger in her line of sight, said, "Looks like you have a new teacher," and caught her eye with a look that screamed better you than me.

Just her luck.

Scowling, she made eye-contact with Jaeger and threw him the knife. “Your turn.”

Jaeger caught the knife. In the time it took for him to open his mouth and say, “What?” she’d already closed the distance. Disarmed and grounded. Easier than a dummy.

Jaeger’s mouth split into a toothy grin. "That was amazing!" Clambering to his feet, dusting himself off, he said, "Where'd you learn to fight like that?"

"My father." She did not add it was a pretty basic technique. “It doesn’t matter. It’s not what you’re supposed to be learning anyway.”

He stared at her, eyes shining with fervor. “Let me try again. Disarm me.”

She stared back.

The only time she got to scrap without holding back was with Braun or Porco Galliard. In Marley the instructors were pushing a bayonet into her hands. In Paradis, a wooden knife. Turned onto the front-lines, the Warrior cadets fought to kill, not disarm. She shouldn’t be going easy on the enemy.

The third time Jaeger wound up on his ass, she offered a hand. “You almost had it.”

“Really?” Jaeger reached out to take it; she withdrew and caught him in the stomach with her boot. He got back to his feet, staggering, a tic in his jaw. “What the hell—was that for?”

“You left yourself open.” Resuming stance, unfazed. “I bet you’ve never won a fight in your life.”

A few cadets stopped to watch. Each time she flipped Jaeger over there were cheers. Nothing like back home, in Marley it was always perfunctory.

(Even though Eren is outmatched on a technical level, he innately gets that he has to disable her legs. Perhaps he fights dirty for a similar reason as Annie does; mirroring his point to Reiner in canon about how practice with a fellow soldier doesn't prepare the soldier for a real life situation)

("Don't have any honor?"

Jaeger grunted. "Fairness doesn't mean much in a real fight."

"That's smart, coming from you."

He huffed. "It's realistic." )

Shadis barked at them to disperse.

Jaeger spat into the dirt and said, “I can’t keep up with you.”

“You’re right.” She walked in the direction of the mess hall. Jaeger followed at her heels.

“You could teach me,” he said, “how to fight.”

“Why should I?”

“’Cos I want to learn.” He made a face like she was being obtuse on purpose. “I’ve been in a lot of fights, and I’ve never seen anyone move like that.”

Persistent. Good for target practice, if nothing else.

“Hm,” said Annie. “You’re not going to cry when you lose?”

“I won’t if you won’t,” he said, the light coming back into his eyes. He bumped her shoulder with his. “Next time, we’re partners. Don’t forget!”

I decided that the hood people of tumblr can have new chapters a day early. Yes there will be grammatical errors but where’s the fun in perfection. Anyway here’s who is that kid? Ch2

Tumblr marked this as mature so like, heads up, torture!

The silence is deafening. His ears are ringing, high and just loud enough to hear. His face was throbbing.

There was some beeping and hissing sounds. And then it all hit him at once. Hr gagged violently, there was something down his throat. He was dying, suffocating on something, then all at once he gagged, reched, and threw up. He looked down at his lap and saw a tube. He was in a hospital, and he just threw up his breathing tube.

Alarms were blaring as he tried to figure out where he was. Suddenly the door burst open, there was shouting in some Slavic language. MP’s burst through the door, nurses hot on their heels. A burst of light and then laughter is what followed, someone had just taken a picture.

“They will love this one.” A gravely and angry sounding Russian voice spit out. Makarov.

He was shaking a Polaroid photo. “Ah, we will leave this on in Vietnam. You will love it there. Truly, just forgetting your worries.”

“I’m nae goin’ to Vietnam.” Soap slurred he was heavily sedated and couldn’t really speak. He tried to lift his arm but he found it strapped down with handcuffs to the side of the bed.

“We’re wheels up at 1400, prepare him.” Those were the final words from Makarov before the Konnie MP was drugging him and soap was back asleep.

——————

It was an interesting situation that lead to Johnnys capture. The bullet had never hit the brain, only just entering the skull and exiting. He was called KIA on scene due to many reasons. One, he was in shock and his heart rate was so low that it was difficult to detect without gloves. Number 2 is the fact that, Ghost wears thick gloves on the field, making checking his pulse difficult. And number 3 is that, simply he was shot in the temple, there is a low chance of coming back from that.

How there was a confirmed body though, that is an interesting story. Makarov had found a Konnie that was 5’11, had brown hair and blue eyes and shot him in the head. The soldier had a mohawk shaved into his hair and soaps uniform as well as, somehow, similar facial scarring.

Soap of course, did not know this and thought he had been left behind. So instead of fighting against the ruthless beatings he received, he disassociated. Makarov came in, told him commands that were engraved in his mind from basic, had someone beat him, and then left. He was not there, locked box slowly forming around Johnnys psyche.

——————

It was becoming clearer by the day that he was being trained to fight for Makarov. Do his bidding. He was slowly being separated from the man he was. Johnny gone, hidden so deep in his mind that even the best surgeons couldn’t find him. Soap was slipping away as well. He was fading.

Soap had spent time in a dissociative state before. It was right after his mothers death at 17, and the subsequent beatings that followed by his father. Somehow his fault that his only protection had gotten cancer. He doesn’t remember graduating high school, he doesn’t remember walking into the recruiting office. His first memory after the funeral was handing the sheet to the lady, and pocketing the pen by accident.

This time somehow felt different, like it was in reverse. Like he knows what’s going on, but is forgetting what he had.

——————

Today was different, a new man came in. He was to be referred to only as sir.

He had sat soap down in a metal chair, put electrodes and wires in his body, and secured him tightly to the chair. A light turned on above him and then sir came into his view. A needle, iv tubing and a bag, and a rubber tongue guard were presented.

The guard was forced into his mouth. And the man, no sir, pulled the needle into view.

There are a few things that will send soap into a panic, no matter what state he’s in, and one of those is the thought of having drugs pumped into his system without his say. So this threat of an iv drug infusion was definitely jarring to say the least.

As his hand is forced palm down, he screams and thrashes.

“Hold his arm still, no sedatives. They’ll mess up the treatment” Sir had said. 4 guards, Konnies, MPs, whatever’s, held him down, hard, as the needle was forced into his hand.

A scream that Johnny had not heard since he was a young child erupted in the room. He was screaming so they’d back off. He just got punched in the face instead.

His world spun but he never fully lost consciousness, a concussion, great. When he fully found himself and could process what was going on, he felt a needle in his hand and electrodes on his head.

——————

The iv given to one John Mactavish was not fluid or anything truly medical, by means of ethics of course. It was a drug that severely hinders memory. It was like dementia without the possibility of death. He wouldn’t know where, who, or what, was going on.

Makarov and his friends in the drug processing ring had affectionately called it: reset.

John Mactavish will formally be declared deceased without body, the paperwork is filing through now.

They have their newest weapon, and he will not miss.

——————

He woke up screaming. The noise echoed through the room and hit him again. It had to if been weeks in this room. Two weeks since the first infusion. White walls, clothes, food, everything was white, but there was no light. His hands were in gloves and feet in little boots so he couldn’t harm himself. Sensory deprivation was their parting gift for John MacTavish, his final kick in the ass.

Apollo-001, or a-1, as his freshest burn says.

This may be the end of him, really, he wished ghost was here. They weren’t coming. Makarov had personally showed him his KIA mark and dead body.

John Mactavish KIA,

New possible biological weapon.

Bit short but chapter 1 is on Ao3

#soapghost #ghoap #still an ugly ass ship name #I posted this at work #my boss finna be mad #meh Idrc #also I wanted to say that könig will not make an appearance unless he’s getting shot #because they’re enemies #also how tf does brainwashing work #like pls tell me it kinda accurate

NHS protest & survive strategies for reluctant activists (England). I am angry and writing stuff down.

●Write to your MP (tory) saying a polite version of "stop being stealthy little shits we see what your doing & we've already paid in our taxes" , if (labour) write a polite version of "speak up against the degrading of what we've already paid for in committee stages and in H of L". Do write not email, do visit constituency offices briefly & politely saying that the nhs service to help (pick a category) is worse in your personal experience . This raises stats and the issue of expenditure at the MPs office, giving the MP the feeling of their (publicly available) voting record will have effects on their reelection prospects and makes them nervous about just supporting businesses in the area who are incoming splinters off the nhs area funding * because you see and notice what your MP is actually effectively doing on this issue*. ● Support strikes by combatting the idea that strike removal laws have any place in modern societies in conversation to combat the facebook bilge, and question the idea that three twelve hour shifts a week makes efficient use of trained staff. Question the removal of training bursaries. ●Most important of all combat conversations that say strikers are just after money. Its the work conditions they want improving. ● American style health insurance doesnt cover most stuff because what they call "pre existing' is what the rest of the world calls medical history. European style health insurance says we charge you a trivial data entry fee like two coffee price AFTER treating you zero payment by the way have you cut smoking down and what is your employer doing to reduce workplace hazards.... ● Place blame on Westminster govt political ideology choices by saying in conversation reply like "public money straight into private companies thats a bit (pick slur appropriate to the group youre in) OI THATS MY MONEY "= theyll think about their own money...

●● Register to vote, group with like-minded ppl for emotional support (protesting is by definition going against a larger group) speak when safe and be charming when you announce that you have observed their behaviour. The illusion that you are their sort of people who see and dislike their specific choices makes their ego worried and that is the best way to get these bullies to change. Know your enemy by name and get local facebook groups to be polite persistant and public community representative = "we see you've done x and are talking about x+1 and we think this is already harmful " is more effective than "help (underfunded group)". Cut off funding cuts as the excuse, youre involved in tweaking and directing funding which makes them immediately say nothing about who deserves or not deserve. ● if your group encounter fascists in charge by accident withdraw and regroup for a wider block counter. Be the better person at a distance to stay safe and protest again. Dont go it alone, act as a group.

■Take photo ID along to vote. Yes this is England, but watch out for this change. It is worth voting. Dont wait for the next big election. The NHS is in trouble right now.

#paramedics and nurses among thousands of nhs staff being urged to walkout over pay #nhs #nhs privatisation by stealth #follow the money #local news #protest and survive #journalism is in danger in england #personal safety #directed pressure protest #public info for research helps directed pressure groups #yes it is worth voting in england #register to vote #never tory if you want healthcare

Greek MPs voted on Thursday by 159 to 141 to reject the motion of censure against the New Democracy-led government over newspaper allegations that the February 2023 Tempi train crash, which left 57 people dead, was not caused by human error as officials have claimed.

Prime Minister Kyriakos Mitsotakis welcomed the outcome and called the motion of censure cynical and immoral, describing it as political exploitation of the pain of those who lost people in the crash, which happened when a passenger train and a freight train collided near the village of Tempi.

“I assume the responsibility, in memory of all those who were lost, to tell the truth as I at least understand it and to be judged for what I will say,” Mitsotakis told parliament.

However, in a blow to the government, minister of state Stavros Papastavrou and the deputy minister to the prime minister, Ioannis Bratakos, resigned due to their personal “relationship” with businessman Vaggelis Marinakis, the publisher of To Vima newspaper, which printed the allegations.

Greek media reported that the men visited Marinakis’ house for his name day celebration.

The report published by To Vima cited documents from the Greek Police’s Forensic Laboratories allegedly stating that the order given by the stationmaster in the city of Larissa for the train to depart on the wrong track actually referred to another train that wasn’t involved in the fatal crash.

The stationmaster has admitted making an error, Greek media have reported. However, the stationmaster said that he did not recognise his voice on leaked, edited recordings of the alleged departure. He described the recordings as inaccurate.

On Thursday, Avgi, the media outlet of the Greek left-wing SYRIZA party, published eight photographs that it said prove that the scene of the fatal train accident was tampered with, causing the destruction of evidence.

Last week, Vasilis Kokotsakis, an expert hired by some of the families’ victims, filed a report about the crash to the special investigator in Larissa. Kokotsakis told SYRIZA’s radio station Kokkino 105.5 that the freight train was first derailed and then collided with the passenger train.

He said that the freight train, which was coming from North Macedonia, was carrying xylene or xylol, a dangerous chemical substance, which caused the explosion, resulting in the incineration of 28 of the passengers.

Thursday’s censure motion was filed by the centre-left PASOK party and co-signed by the left-wing SYRIZA, the New Left and Pleussi Eleftherias.

New Democracy MPs and the independent MP Haris Katsivardas, a former member of the far-right Spartans party and lawyer for Ilias Kasidiaris, a jailed former leading member of the banned fascist Golden Dawn party, voted against the motion.

Integrating Drones into Commercial Workflows

Introduction

Unmanned aerial vehicles, or drones, have become increasingly popular and innovative in recent years. Drones were formerly thought to be mostly entertainment gadgets, however they are now widely used in business fields such as photography, surveying, infrastructure inspection, filmmaking, and more.

Businesses may use drone technology's airborne capabilities to improve operations, take visually appealing photos, evaluate assets, and increase productivity. Specifically, the insideFPV Elevate drone has capabilities that make it perfect for commercial usage at a reasonable cost.

Let's explore major advancements in drone technology that make broad commercial integration possible, major industries that gain from UAVs, use cases that highlight the possibilities of drones, and how the Elevate drone may provide companies a competitive advantage in the air.

Key Drone Developments

The following significant advancements in drone technology have opened the door to commercial integration:

Flight Time: A lot of prosumer and commercial drones, like the Elevate, now provide 105+ minute flight periods, up from just 20-30 minutes a few years ago.

Camera Quality: Drones can capture detailed, smooth footage with their 4K, 12+ MP cameras and excellent picture stabilization. Sturdy 4K video and beautiful 20 MP still photos are captured by the Elevate.

Safety: Automated flying modes, obstacle avoidance sensors make airborne operations safer and more dependable. Obstacle avoidance is available in 540° on the Elevate.

Training & Support: Drone manufacturers have made commercial adoption easier with their streamlined training programs and committed customer support resources. InsideFPV provides helpful resources and prompt assistance by pilot partnership programs that assist in training of pilots.

Price: Drones in the middle market that cost around ₹1 to 3 lakhs, increasingly come equipped with enterprise-level functionalities. ELevate drone is listed at the price of ₹1.5 lakhs only.

Drones such as the Elevate drone are no longer just novelty devices ; they are increasingly becoming valuable commercial instruments.

Top Industries Adopting Drones

Drones are being used by a wide range of industries to market properties and projects, collect data, monitor locations, get previously unattainable points of view, and automate manual operations.

Film & Content Creation: Utilize creative aerial viewpoints to record expansive 4K video and 20MP still images. Elevate-style drones maximize output value.

Photography: Give shots striking angles and elevation in photography. Drone skills are beneficial for photography of landscapes, real estate, events, marriages, wildlife, etc.

Surveying & Inspection: Gather images, videos, and data while safely surveying land, infrastructure (such as cell towers and bridges), accident scenes, properties, mining locations and hazardous areas.

Public Safety: To ensure and monitor public safety and to find missing people, pinpoint hotspots during fires, and take aerial photos of accident sites, police and fire services use infrared drones. Drones like Elevate can give a complete picture, which helps police assess the situation and get a quick line-up on the future plan of action.

Data Analysis: Gather information, images etc to get the real picture and then use the data for making data-driven decisions to increase precision and accuracy.

Agriculture: Agri-drones contain reservoirs that can hold fertilizer and pesticides, they can be utilized to spray chemicals on crops faster than using traditional techniques. It saves time and effort of the farmers, thus freeing up their time to diversify their activities.

Cargo and transport: The production of drones with advanced navigational systems, such as GPS and obstacle avoidance software, to allow autonomous flying and navigation, is a significant technological development. This facilitates the safe, effective, and little human intervention required for the delivery of commodities. With high precision and GPS, tracking and package delivery has improved.

Military Safety: Drones are used by military bases to patrol the borders and territories of the country and to keep a check on operational activities by self and neighboring countries. They can also directly intervene on the battlefield by dropping or firing precision-guided munitions themselves, or indirectly by designating targets for such munitions to be dropped or fired from manned systems. They are employed for both operational and strategic surveillance as well as battlefield surveillance.

Use Cases

Multitude commercial use cases demonstrate drone capabilities:

Hollywood Filmmakers utilize UAVs for incredible chase sequences and intricately planned overhead shots. The Elevate’s 4K video and safety features support complex maneuvers.

Real Estate agents capture striking property photos and videos. Showcasing houses, landmarks and neighborhoods from new aerial angles engages buyers.

Insurance providers dispatch drones after natural disasters to swiftly evaluate damage across neighborhoods or entire towns.

Solar operators use thermographic drones to identify hot spots signaling equipment faults requiring maintenance at vast solar fields.

Construction managers track build progress with periodic aerial photos feeding into workflow software systems to update schedules and budgets.

Military bases use drones in many countries for operational surveillance and in battlefields as a device via which armors and detonators are connected to use against the other country with which there is a conflict.

These examples exhibit drones’ expanding roles and value for enterprises. When equipped with a stable, high quality platform like the Elevate drone, commercial possibilities are truly limitless.

InsideFPV’s Elevate drone packs top capabilities specially designed for commercial use at an affordable ₹0.9 Lakh price point:

Flight Time - Fly for over 35 minutes on a single intelligent battery charge. Extend flight sessions with additional batteries.

Video & Photos - Capture spectacular 4K video and 20 MP photographs via 1080p camera.

Obstacle Avoidance- 540° sensing and one key automated avoidance helps prevent crashes, critical for commercial integrity.

Durability - An industrial grade carbon fiber frame protects components and withstands adverse weather, collisions, and rigorous commercial working conditions.

Support - InsideFPV offers onboarding support, video tutorials, spot replacement parts, and a 1 crash warranty for peace of mind.

The Elevate drone is a flexible aerial instrument for businesses thanks to these features. insideFPV offers enterprise-tailored solutions such as pilot partnership program where training is provided for the same.

Using airborne capabilities opens up enormous commercial value for numerous businesses that would not have been possible without UAVs. Drones such as the Elevate are used to solve issues, improve safety, increase production and efficiency, gather interesting information for content creation and filmmaking, and open up new service opportunities.

Drones will only become more prevalent in the upcoming years across a variety of business industries as barriers to adoption decrease. Drones improve efficiency for a variety of industries and first responders, including photographers, filmmakers, builders, and utilities.

Conclusion

Drones are transforming multiple industries by providing businesses with wide capabilities, interesting content production options, and important aerial viewpoints. Commercial integration will only quicken as platforms like the Elevate drone progress, adding more intelligent capabilities, safer operations, better cameras and sensors, and longer flight durations.

Drones appear to have a bright future since they will play important roles in improving corporate processes through tasks like site monitoring, safety oversight, overhead data collection, productivity optimization, and opening up new creative options to improve deliverables across industries. Companies who take use of drones' advantages now will benefit later.

FAQs

Can drones be used commercially?

Several industries, including aerial photography, surveying, mapping, agriculture, and package delivery, use commercial drones. These drones are flown by people or businesses who charge others for their services.

Can drones be used commercially without approval?

The specifications of the drone, other than nano drone, make it compulsory to be registered and approved by DGCA. Unauthorized flying of drone is strictly prohibited and can lead to serious legal complications including financial penalties.
