Elsewhere, reactions to the campaign were mainly positive, with many soldiers calling the new slogan an improvement over the former “This is happening. Just close your eyes and accept it.”
“I’m not sure exactly what it was about the old slogan,” admitted Staff Sgt. Jason Ruiz, a Sexual Harassment/Assault Response and Prevention NCO within his company, “but it just never sat right with me.”
In accordance with the updated regulations, materials will be disseminated to every Active, Guard, and Reserve unit armory in the country to assist E-4s as they prepare presentations on the latest policy.
“Of course, the policy changes create some extra work,” said one specialist with the 118th Infantry Regiment of the S.C. Army National Guard, on condition of anonymity. “but this new guidance will help get the Army back to operating like a greasy, oily machine — like those ones where you put in a quarter and a penny, and get back a messed-up penny. The way the Army was meant to be.”
I clicked on my daily "It's happening!" link. Click on one every day, I do. Makes me feel good when I do, until it doesn't. Oh well, time to find another "It's happening!" link...sure I'll find one by tomorrow (or Thursday).
OP conveniently created their own context. This is the internet, where context free videos can be used in whatever way makes you feel how the poster wants you to feel.
hes just a specialist, he doesnt know anything. Thats like trying to understand whats going on at the managerial level at a store by talking with the cashier.
I wouldn't read anything at all into this. It's the kinda shit we in the E-4 mafia would do while sitting around with our thumbs up our ass waiting to roll out.
He is almost certainly talking about whatever they're supposed to be doing right now, but the entire mission is being held up because of some stupid crap like the supply sergeant lost the keys to the closet where he keeps NVG batteries.
Anyone recognize the unit patch? National Guard or Army Reserve. Thinking the video guy is former active Navy, got out and joined the Army Reserve or National Guard.
says if his fun meter is on full,
that means it's 'not' happening.
and then he puts it on empty,
so means it's 'happening',
at least that's what I think he meant.
Well... he is an E4.... https://archive.duffelblog.com/2014/01/e4-mafia-campaign/
Interesting read, they mention an old slogan:

If it was happening, would it be on tiktok?
Only if it WASN'T happening.
Because it's NOT happening.
^This!
And pissbags that have tiktok installed certainly won't be part of any happening.

Sorry, I wasn't aiming for click bait here, but all this video contains is a soldier essentially saying "it's happening"
There was probably a better title choice
No harm no foul dude. I was just lamenting again. I want to see something blowed up though!! LOL
Trying to read through what this soldier is saying... is he saying "it's happening" using double negatives here? God I hope so
Add them up.
First response better be the number.
42
17
23
A magazine with the same name.
This looks like some personal video from some soldier at some random base in somewhere USA.🤷🏻♂️
Sorry I didn't have an action packed body cam of seals raiding the White House for you, just listen to what this soldier is saying
Some context would be nice, where is this, and what are the soldiers doing?
I know he says it's not happening over and over, and I know about the fun meter I read your posts OP but a little more info would be nice.

I wish I had some more info for you, I just stumbled across this, so your guess is as good as mine.
Maybe some digital soldiers could get some more context for us here?

the weaponry that they had in the brief shot of the group standing around makes me lean towards training exercise
no blank adapters that I saw but they seemed pretty chill and relaxed, likely training.
What's "not happening"?
Goign back to Afghanistan.
It’s not happening until Oct
Do you mean it's not NOT happening until October?
IMHO
Or after

Noticed one of the patches belong to 593rd Expeditionary Sustainment Command
Took a peek at their website, no recent news, nothing out of the ordinary.
