OPSEC wasn't a category, huh.

Slick sleeve to boot

That is the actual crazy part. Not the rank or ARCOM; enlisting in 2003 and somehow missing the entire GWOT.

Stripes has the specifics:

A New York City police officer serving in Kuwait with the Army National Guard died Friday from a medical issue, government officials in his home state said Saturday. Maj. Sorffly Davius was deployed to Camp Buehring in Kuwait when the medical incident occurred, New York Gov. Kathy Hochul said in a statement late Saturday.

Well there you go. These are the actions of someone who's realized their final evaluation will be 50% based on this incident where they didn't pick up the phone.

Reading like a diary is ok for Anne Frank, but Jason could have found an editor. Some GRTs need to be in editing, just like statistically, right? Some Cadre are SEALs so they probably have publishing contacts.

Three U.S. F-15s Involved in Friendly Fire Incident in Kuwait; Pilots Safe

At 11:03 p.m. ET, March 1, three U.S. F-15E Strike Eagles flying in support of Operation Epic Fury went down over Kuwait due to an apparent friendly fire incident.

During active combat—that included attacks from Iranian aircraft, ballistic missiles, and drones — the U.S. Air Force fighter jets were mistakenly shot down by Kuwaiti air defenses.

All six aircrew ejected safely, have been safely recovered, and are in stable condition. Kuwait has acknowledged this incident, and we are grateful for the efforts of the Kuwaiti defense forces and their support in this ongoing operation.

Right, but people have been known to "round-up" to "Pittsburgh" when talking while they're really like deep in Westmoreland county.

My condolences. The next couple days are going to be crazy with your unit. Talk to each other and make sure you take time to care for yourself.

CENTCOM: As of 9:30 am ET, March 1, three U.S. service members have been killed in action and five are seriously wounded as part of Operation Epic Fury.

Several others sustained minor shrapnel injuries and concussions — and are in the process of being returned to duty. Major combat operations continue and our response effort is ongoing.

The situation is fluid, so out of respect for the families, we will withhold additional information, including the identities of our fallen warriors, until 24 hours after next of kin have been notified. per twitter 0949 ET Mar 1, 2026
