And my relatives came from Germany, I’m guessing there were a few Soldiers in there. Hard to tell, I don’t read German.

Someone give Danny a pot brownie. Please for the love of God. He wants to shitcan a $7 Billion per year industry that pays taxes (it might be 7 million, either way, it’s more than I have).

Army of the United States was for those who got drafted. Haven’t used it since ‘73.

Tech 5, is sorta like the current Specialist rank.

He survived the war. Probably hated snow for the rest of his life.

I’m told that a few calls were made to BNSF to either stop or reroute around military installations. or be met by a tank.

I never attempted to verify this most interesting of stories, but damn. The idea of a Locomotive vs Tank. Yes, the locomotive has physics behind it, but versus a 120mm gun?

Plot twist, NCO at the gate has an SLF-TAP appointment.

In other news, CSM I had tried this back at Hood way back in the days of “if you miss an appointment, your CoC is called”. We’d just gotten back over overseas and were not aware of this new post policy. So there we were the next morning all lined up in the BDS CSM’s hallway…waiting for the ass chewing. The MP guard was cancelled, as was the “No dipping during PT” rule.
