You start hearing about "how good the old forum was" from day 1 and you eventually end up saying it yourself, even if you've never seen that forum layout.

When you know you´re going to get promoted soon and you stop doing dangerous things so that nothing happens to you before getting that long-waited promotion.

When you have to have that awkward conversation with the girlfriend explaining what the 29th is and that's it much more complex than just "a bunch of guys playing video games".
To add to this, when you have drill obligations and you tell friends that you are "busy" on that night and can't do anything.
When you press your push to talk key when you are talking to someone in the same room
When you have TeamSpeak set up on 3 different computers
When you take a second to respond to your first name

Yeah is quite hard to explain to other people hahah
Some friends of mine wanted to meet up to jam on a Monday (a platoon drill night). I made one and they brought up meeting on Mondays regularly and I said "Oh uh... I can't do Mondays, I'm busy." And one of them asked "Oh do you jam with another band on Mondays?" I said "Yeah... that's what I do."
Dude I feel it, I finally just maned up and told all my homies, I can't come out these days because of computer stuff. And they asked about it so I explained the 29th to em. They thought it was cool, so it worked out and I'm not that weird lol
When you are chilling with your friends after a dinner party and you have to excuse yourself for a hour to write down some "clinical notes" of your cases of the week and they find you with headphones on, playing and asking for indications about the mg position.
When you drop by after 4 years just to say hello. Glad to see the 29th is still alive and kicking. Too bad I had to re-register to the forums, I would have loved to post this with my old account.

When you re-enlist... Again.
When this is you:
You suddenly hear "Oh God, not again!!" and you get blown up by a grenade.
When you stay awake until 03:00AM on your day off just to join the EST drills.
You know you're in the 29th because you are in the 29th

When you have Nam flashbacks when the nade land right under you
When you know you´re going to get promoted soon and you stop doing dangerous things so that nothing happens to you before getting that long-waited promotion.
