Right in the middle of a rendition of Macarena.

It probably decided to self immolate in shame.

The warrior’s rest.

And they give the Air Force sh*t about having it soft!

So is he singing off, or signing off? :D

“Preserve peace and restore justice, so the healing of a devastated nation can begin.”

Hmm..they must have shipped him back stateside.

Is there a morale (sic) to this story?

In that case, time to deploy the Navy right here at home.

And where is“LAVA LAVA LENNY”? I s he now the poster boy for concussed football players?

As Donald Trump once said—-“But the pension fund was just sitting there!”

“Who pulled the plug out? Who, who, who, who, who?”

( ͡ᵔ ͜ʖ ͡ᵔ )

They also serve who service busted karaoke machines.

“Okay, everybody panic!”

Don’t know where Tripler is that they have a karaoke machine but it wasn’t Tuzla-East.

This arc reminds me of my brief stint on active duty in Germany supporting the massive transfer of supplies to Bosnia and Hungary during this time! I was a keyboard warrior working at all hours of the night

Shameful! More cultural appropriation!

Oh, no! Not the karaoke machine! Anything but that!

Our troops in Bosnia had the worst of all worlds. They were under ROE that prevented them from doing anything other than arriving after the slaughters and cleaning up the bodies.

Buddy of mine was a driver in an Abrams. He says most of what his unit did was show up after the shooters had left. Burned villages, piles of dead civilians and no followup to get the bad guys. They were not allowed to act on intel until after the fact.

A whole lot of our people came home with serious PTSD without ever having fired a shot. Month after month of sorting the bodies, hoping to find survivors. Forced to witness the results of torture, rape and mutilations.

It wasn’t funny then and it isn’t funny today.

So should we be having the NG out under martial law while trying to heal from the last guy and his accolites?
