So I'm running a range for unit that's training on their machine guns. I guess they had 50 people shoot 4 iterations and only one person qualified. They said it was because of the wind. I know for a fact that the wind won't bother a 5.56mm round until further then 600 meters, which was their furthest target, but whatever. So they say they want to shoot at night and want us to put infrared chemical lights on the targets to mark them. So we go and set them all up, but when we get back, I notice they have a bunch of pas-13s (thermal sights) set up. So I ask this dumb bitch in the tower "You guys have nods (night vision), right?" she says "No. Why?" I tell her that you can't see infrared sources with thermals. She says "Yes you can! All the training manuals and my NCOs say you can!" and all I can do is stare at her and finally say "Okay. You're right. I'm stupid."

Because I don't know anything. I only have a GED and never went to college.
