New Army "cartoon" recruiting ad - I am not impressed
Tacfoley:
I was being facetious or a smart mule in reference to the glorious one that Uncle Sam put out.

Maybe we should reopen FOB Keating or Wolverine in AFG and ship this new breed of recruits there for 180 days. Call it OJT.This message has been edited. Last edited by: Graniteguy,

At some point it will be virtuous to stop virtue signalling. Then we can get back to sanity.

Their motto: Committed to excellence and the fair treatment of all.
Should be: Committed to the destruction of our nation's enemies.

Insanity. Truly, insanity. I guess we're going to have to get our ass kicked a few times before the people who are supposed to be in charge of maintaining the armed forces of the United States cut the idiotic, childish shit and get back to their job.
Unreal

The Air Force is hosting drag shows on base now as well.
A Nevada Air Force base hosted the first “Drag-u-Nellis” drag show in its history this month, said to be “an opportunity for attendees to learn more about the history and significance of drag performance art within the LGBT+ community.”
Nellis Air Force Base, located 14 miles northeast of Las Vegas, said in a statement that the event took place at one of its on-base dining and entertainment clubs last Thursday.
An invitation shared to Twitter the day after the event listed Nellis Club as the event space and Nellis Top 3 as the hosts.
The invite also read: “Discover the significance of Drag in the LGBT+ Community.”
The event was timely, given that it occurred during Pride Month.
The group’s private Facebook page says they aim to “enhance the morale, esprit de corps, of all enlisted personnel assigned to the [99th Air Base] Wing and to facilitate cooperation between members of the top three enlisted grades.”
The Nellis Club offers a “versatile dining and entertainment experience for all its members,” according to the Nellis Force Support Squadron website.
In his statement, Nellis spokesman Lt. Col. Bryon McGarry said the event “was sponsored by a private organization and provided an opportunity for attendees to learn more about the history and significance of drag performance art within the LGBT+ community.”
The private organization in question is the Nellis Air Force Base Pride committee. The committee focuses on diversity and inclusion initiatives and consists of volunteers from across the base.
“Ensuring our ranks reflect and are inclusive of the American people is essential to the morale, cohesion, and readiness of the military,” his statement continued. “Nellis Air Force Base is committed to providing and championing an environment that is characterized by equal opportunity, diversity and inclusion.”

On the other site that I frequent, one of the members posted that the 82nd All American ABN posted a nice whoop De Doo Pride picture and statement
This is getting to be ridiculous and making the military more of a joke than it is.
I find it ironic that all through boot camp soldiers, sailors, marines etc... are preached, drilled in unity, esprit de corps, and everyone is the same.
Then they dedicate each month to a certain demographic and state how special they are.
I am so fed up with the government and military. After spending 10months with my current unit, I put my paperwork in to transfer to the IRR> The last straw was when we had the stand down and had basically what I will call attack whitey training. Sure lets target the one demographic of people who make up 90% of the combat arms units.
I would really like to know what Putin, the Chinese, ISIS etc.. think when they she this garbage.

I wonder why the video's comments are turned off?
I guess because the left only allows the indoctrination...discussion...to go one way.
195K dislikes. Looks like the 98% are making their voices heard. Too bad no one at the Pentagon or WH is listening.

The hypocrisy here is amazing!!! It is ground breaking, and 'woke' and totally acceptable to hold a 'drag show' on Nellis, but if the base were to attempt to put on a similar show with real women the media would be up in arms about the military objectifying women.
