Great, more PowerPoint soldiering, that’ll help.
Well, on the plus side, if you do get conscripted you might be able to intimidate your officer, as they will be an unfit nerd and not a warrior. Fragging no longer needed.
so the guy who hates soldiers and avoided obligatory service with a shameless medical issue is now injecting suits into it in a further act of denigration.
Sad expectation, unfortunately.
Ok. So here’s your new CO. His name is musk. Elon musk. He has 0 military experience or training. And you are being deployed next week. Go get em tiger.
I assume they are going to be given the rank of commissar.
All ist klar?
Great, so they’re legitimate non-civilian targets.
Get used to it. The United States of America has become something we won’t recognize.
I don’t get it. Why?
their bribes were successful, this is their payback.
All quiet on the frontal lobe.
"They’ll work on helping the Army acquire more commercial tech, though it’s not clear how conflict-of-interest issues will be enforced, given the fact that the people all work for companies that would conceivably be selling their wares to the military. "
They’re doing it for the corruption. Instead of the Army picking the best technology, the CTO of Palantir will be ordering the Palantir contracts.
Next step is for Trump to fire the Generals and replace them with Maga CEO’s.
Today’s joke, tomorrow’s realit- wait, that’s basically what they’re doing now. I’m sure when the Palantir slug disagrees with the General, it’s going to the slug.
As Task & Purpose notes, the men will get to skip the usual process of taking a Direct Commissioning Course at Fort Benning, Georgia, and they won’t need to complete the Army Fitness Test.
Isn’t one of the stated reasons behind restricting trans people and women in certain roles that they would have to change the fitness standards (even though that’s a lie)?
Are you suggesting this administration gives a sweet flying fuck about rules, logic, or law?
FUCK THIS TIMELINE
Imagine having seen combat and suddenly having to take orders from some coddled millionaire man-child that’s cosplaying as commissioned officer
Throwback…
