This one was from 2003 also. HA! Great threat recognition soldier!

US Army soldiers take rest during patrol in Baghdad suburb, Monday Nov. 17, 2003. U.S. forces have reacted to the increasing attacks in which dozens of Americans and their allies have died by mounting a massive show of force in central and northern Iraq. (AP Photo/Hadi Mizban). The AP editors ...
I think we can all agree our society will never be truly self actualized until male soldiers in combat conditions can have unrestricted anal intercourse, and women soldiers in combat conditions have access to abortions while plinking away at the enemy. Oh, and everybody needs an Obamaphone.
Needs Of The Service....
Before we set about heading down the road of me once again explaining why chicks fighting our wars in the combat arms means the end of our civilization, I want everyone reading this to take a long look at that picture and understand what it means. The needs of the service come before th...
BAH! HUMBUG!!! Nothing beats a delicious canned ham divided amongst you and and all the other single guys at the alert facility, where you could wake up on Christmas day and see the cheery contrast of the concertina lining the top of the facility with the omnipresent gray German overcast. LOL!
What I Want For Christmas..
Every year, I tell my wife not to buy me anything for Christmas. I explain that I am a grown man, and that I can just use my money and earning power to buy myself anything that I want. I also tell her that after having so many Christmases and Thanksgivings and Birthdays etc. doing something in...
I can imagine some guy showing up at the classroom door with a Glock back in the early '70s, and within 60 seconds Mrs Brown would have him at the blackboard berating his inability to diagram a prepositional phrase. She was Chuck Norris with an English degree. I doubt she ever had a moment of indecision in her life.
I got an idea and it employs Vets!!
Freaking Awesome!!! Instills continued pride for Vets, serves a trade they are very familiar with, good at and protects soft targets. Additionally provides an immediate job gap for the 200,000 Marines getting fired in Feb. Think it will happen? "It's better to live one day as a lion than a hu...
I think that used to be the job description of a Principal. I never saw my HS Principal carrying a gun, but it wouldn't have surprised me one bit. Of course this was back when I'd occasionally bring a 12 gauge in my pickup if we were going hunting after school, and guys learned about capitalism from trading pocket knives, and every swinging dick in school knew how to lay a bead with an arc welder, and . If there were any mass shootings in a school back then, somehow I missed them.
Note: My apologies to my 5th grade English teacher Mrs. Vivian Brown (RIP) for that intentional run-on sentence above. I see an image of her sitting at her desk with her planed-down 32" Louisville Slugger "Board of Education" every time I catch myself in a grammatical faux pas.

I would generally be for this if the vets wouldn't carry those scary looking guns unless the clip had 10 rounds or less. I would also require them to pass a union sponsored test on environmental/nutritional issues.

The first Weasels strafed VN SA-2/3 site radars in F-100s that had basically a souped up Fuzzbuster. I think that qualifies as "manly" in anyone's book.
Wild Weasels: Saving lives and cheating death
All of the books I have reviewed lately have been infantry or special operations, so I really didn't think Viper Pilot, an autobiography of a modern-day Air Force fighter pilot would offer much in the way of excitement. I was mistaken. In an age of low-tech, low-intensity conflicts, dogfights h...
If only soldiers would pony up $5 for every MRE they got, that would be enough to finance Obamaphones for the entire Detroit area.
I told arlo Jr he needed to get out of the USAF and go where the real money is... Poverty!
Sequestration? Fiscal cliff? Either way, the military and veterans are going to "pay"
And I don't mean "pay" in a good way. According to Military.com, the Congressional Budget Office (CBO) believes that regardless of whether we're confronted with sequestration (or not) or the fiscal cliff (or not), it's time to cut back on military and veteran pay and benefits. You see the wars ...
Petraeus missed his opportunity to say, "I did not have sexual relations with that woman. Not a single time."
On the Lighter Side (Part....whatever)
"Are You Trying To Seduce Me, Ms Broadwell?"
It would surprise me if we gave F-22s to Cuba, but not a whole lot.
F John Kerry for Sec Def
I truly wish this was a joke, well the pic is, or not, but sadly the chances of Kerry becoming the next Sec Def are pretty good. That makes me want to join the Israeli Defense Force....Hmmmmm. Reader Patrick sends this reminder of who Kerry's true supporters are.
I don't think his original discharge file is "seared" in his memory like spending Christmas Eve in Cambodia was.
Don't Talk To Me About Respect....
Site Note: From this time forward, the President will be known and called by this writer as the AHAC (Amateur Hour Ass-Clown)... So, the AHAC comes out after being re-elected with the idea that maybe a change at the top of DoD might be in order, since according to him, he told DoD, CIA, DoS and...
Not a surprise. Obama appointed a Safe Schools Czar that promoted teaching fisting to 14 year olds.
