Yep, the ones that brag after their service usually haven’t done dick while they were in. Also, a good way to spot a bullshitter is simply asking what their MOS number was.
It’s codes the military uses to identify your job and job description. Each has their own sets of rules and procedures, and personnel use specific terminology when in a specific job field. That’s why it’s easy to spot a bullshitter.
You’d have to have been in to know they’re bullshitting though. A layman wouldn’t know some made-up MOS followed by “inflight missile repair technician”.
Yeah, but the Airman know what people mean when they ask, because no one else knows what an Air Force Specialty Code is outside of us.
I usually just dumb it down if a Marine or Soldier asks my Mos and say that I was in IT because I’m not sure that they can handle any words that aren’t acronyms.
It’s is. Each military designates their members by the operational (occupational) specialty. Each Service does it different. For example, Navy doesn’t use MOS in conversation, Army does.
There is an inverse relationship between what someone has accomplished while in the military and how much they brag about it after they get out.

Antman?
More like Wasp, and not exactly a “repair”
Can I be that and an assault space shuttle door gunner?
I hate to admit it, but that would be a pretty cool job.
Hardest MOS to get.
Others have explained what it is but the acronym is Military Occupational Specialty
It’s also service specific. Air force calls it an AFSC instead of MOS.

Just talk slow and enunciate, and if steam starts coming out of their ears, throw them some crayons to munch on and you’ll be fine.
Sounds American.

Yea, “accomplished,” right. Or maybe the more lives you ruin, the less you brag about it.
