Doc Hawkins posted:a post in the other-other idiots thread reminded me of this one As hilarious as this is to know about her, and as much as I hate Dick Cheney, I'm not going to begrudge anyone on figuring out a way to get out of going to Vietnam, even if it is a bit classist. If I were facing down being drafted I'd fight tooth and nail not to get gang pressed into service.

My old CSM instituted a policy that nobody could be on their cell phone during duty hours while on staff duty, but said that we could watch videos as long as they were "military related". This lead to me getting to re-watch Generation Kill and Band of Brothers several times since staff duty during duty hours is a pointless job and is just a way to not have to hire a janitorial staff.

Midjack posted:France is overall a very competent nation politically, economically, and militarily. The “cheese eating surrender monkey” reputation is really undeserved. The whole "Americans hating on the French" thing is super recent, and mainly due to them not going along with a lot of our bullshit. However, Charles de Gaulle was a gigantic rear end in a top hat and an idiot.

I'm bemused that he didn't face any punishment from the FFL for intentional fratricide, but the IDF gave him a year in prison for deserting to get revenge on the concentration camp guard who killed his family. Like, what the gently caress Israel? You should have thrown the man a parade in Tel Aviv.

Some dumbass from 1-25 did that with a Stryker down at JRTC, drove it right through the designated sleeping area that was marked off with engineer tape and glow sticks. Luckily, nobody was sleeping there but based on the number of rucksacks that got crushed, he would have run over about 6 people.

For more hilarity, this is the same rotation, since we were an airborne engineer unit, our battalion's mission was to make the runway down there usable for aircraft after it had been seized. What happens the first night 1/25 gets there? They kill one of our bulldozers that was grading the runway because they thought it was a tank. This is after the airfield had been secured by friendly forces for several days. They somehow thought an enemy tank had just appeared right in the middle of the friendly AO.

They shot it with one of the MGS's, so it counted as a catastrophic kill, but that rotation was so hosed up that the JRTC staff just brought the dozer and driver back to life. This is a unit that made a SAW gunner the battalion RTO, and hosed up the acquisition paperwork so the first wave of guys in only had 10 rounds apiece for M4s and 20 for crew served.

So, maybe we should do something about that "President can unclassify anything they want whenever they want" thing. I guarantee you that Donny has no idea what is or isn't classified and what is or isn't tactically sensitive, we've seen as much evidence to that point over the last 3 years. Just makes the "buttery males!" thing that much more galling.
