yea alcohol is a necessity to put up with army bullshit.
talk to your agr nco or retention nco or whoever is at your armory and see if they could put you on orders to do some menial tasks for them. at least then you are getting a bit more money. also, stick to drinking at home, or if you do go out, drink cheap, really cheap.
dont buy stupid stuff till after you are done with your first tour in afgan/iraq. then you will have some money to piss away. also get a civilian job..
