They can't help themselves, can they? They have to "do something, anything!" And consequently will *say* anything. Even if they don't really know anything about it. Nor care to learn about it, really. And some of them write the laws. Nice, big, complex ones, that they don't want others to read, just vote on based on the executive summary and because "it's the right thing to do, implement these "common sense" provisions. And the others are happy to vote as...

Some more Gunner Zen... and a bad hat day.

This looks like fun. And, [chuckle] some of them look funny. The dangers of a beret. 04/08/2013 - Afghan National Army Maj. Gen.

Because....

...you *have* to have a HERA* round if you're going to call yourself a *serious* collector. I mean, who doesn't need a HE round with a rocket motor to kick it those exta klicks? The pic embiggens.

It seemed like a good idea at the time...

"Bring your daughter to Take Your Daughter To Work Day," they said. "It'll be fun!" they opined. "We'll have activities!" they bleated.

What's Wrong With This Picture? [Updated]

Leadership fail. Leadership by example: Good - 10th Mountain CG (or some two-star, based on the placard) eats at the DFAC. Leadership by example: Bad - CG's caravan parks in the handicap slots.

On the Dangers of Being a North Korean Journalist...

From my old friend Morgan, regarding the embedded video: "That reeks of awesome!!! Some things that occurred to me. 1. When the pistol is empty, you hear two clicks as they continue to attempt to fire. This indicates a basic mistrust of their weapons/ammo. 2. Their lunch transports itself. It also provides entertainment until lunchtime. Which comes right after the steeplechase. 3. Our officers wish they could point pistols at guys with microphones. Ergo, N Korea is more free. 4.

"To Hell and Back," the Bala Murghab Saga: RPG attack at Operation Red Sand

Commentary by Master Sgt. Kevin Wallace 366th Fighter Wing Public Affairs 4/8/2013 - MOUNTAIN HOME AIR FORCE BASE, Idaho -- For some, coming home means flag-waving crowds, cheers and parades. For others, there is no real coming home, just a struggle to adapt to who they've become and make sense of what they'd done.

We're just a bunch of Dexters in Bill Maher's world...

Bill Maher showing what a hip, deep thinker he is while chatting with Sebastian Junger. Well, some of them are psychopaths. I mean, let’s be honest. Some people join the Army because it’s the one place where you can kill people for free. Where you’re not charged with murder. I will say the Auld Soldier talked about his team sergeant in Korea, who was *exactly* what Maher is talking about - a man who feared the end of the war, because it would mean he couldn't kill people any...
