@Randomguy1f @HardPass4 In the 1980’s we used them for guarding EPW. Intimidating is a fine quality for that task.

@HardPass4 I know shotguns aren’t really useful in modern-day warfare, but it would be really funny to send in a pack of unsupervised young men with their war crime sticks into the enemy positions

@pptsapper Years back, knew a 28th Div WW2 vet. He joined the 28th as an infantry replacement two weeks before they were sent into the Hurtgen Forest. Four weeks after that, he was one of seven men left alive in his company.
Only folks he’d talk to about it were guys with a CIB or CFMB.

@judgementshae Some girls just have tiny boobs.
Mine stopped growing when I was 13 and I’ve been the same size ever since, with minor fluctuations when I gain/lose weight. Barely an A cup for life. 🤷🏼♀️

@John_Cyrano Yeah, my 40-year old homebrew system. I like it, obviously.

@rogue708187833 @HeatherThomasAF For those of us of a certain age, there is a great deal of cognitive dissonance in the phrase “luxury resort in Albania.”

@ClaireMax It’s *your* account, so stack the bodies as you see fit.

I think it’s up to me to decide how I handle abusers/harassers on my own account. Telling me what to do (or what not to do) about them comes off as really condescending, even if you don’t mean to be. I’m aware that muting/ignoring is an option, I’ve said why i don’t just do that.

LOL
Good luck in the war, pal. Maybe you'll survive because the bad guys are laughing so hard they can't aim straight.

@LucindaLea1 @lisareality1 “First United States Army Current Ops Division! This line is NOT secure! Mr. Kirk speaking. How may I assist you?”
Thing is, I actually used to work there. Get a lot of hangups on that one.

I had a phone conversation today with a very nice young chap from Pakistan. This is how it went:
"Hello, how are you today?"
"I'm very well thank you for asking, how are you and more to the point, WHO are you?"
"Madam, my name is Sanjit, and I'm calling you from Microsoft.”
"Microsoft, is that a city in Pakistan?”
" No Madam, MICROSOFT, the computer company. I'm calling to tell you that we have found a problem with your computer.”
"REALLY, that's quite concerning.”
"Yes Madam, it can become very serious indeed but thankfully I will be able to fix it for you.”
"No, I meant it's very concerning because I don't HAVE a computer.”
“You don't?"
“No.”
"Ahh, it must be a problem on your laptop Madam.”
"Don't have one.”
"Ipad?"
"Nope.”
"Tablet?"
"I have none of those things. As a matter of fact, I don't even have a telephone.”
After a few seconds of silence he said "Madam, you are lying to me now!"
I said "Well, you started it!!" and put the phone down.

@Iron_Man_Actual Looks like something that the old 7th Inf Div (Light) (Test) at Ord came up with. Way back when Mark Milley was one of her company commanders.

@HeatherThomasAF @FPWellman They want the adulation that comes with certain awards, but don’t want to do things that would actually entitle them to WEAR the award. Cowards, the lot of them.
