Talking to a buddy that got selected for battalion command in the 101st. Petraus was selected to be one of his mentors. Blew my mind.

That was his dad, Creighton Abrams. His tank battalion broke thru the German lines in Bastogne and linked up with the 101st. Later went on to be a memorable 4*. The apple did no fall far from that tree.

Railhead ops at Parsberg. Used to have a nice little mom and pop hähnchen stand there. If you do a street level view of the rail head, you'll see Joe just laying on the concrete pad in their OCPs, waiting for the trains to show, just like we used to in our BDUs. Nothing ever changes.

Imagine if you're a fed working for free overseas right now. Restrictive SOFA makes it almost impossible to get a side gig and you really just can't quit and go looking for another job like you would stateside. If you're exempted, it's starting to feel like indentured servitude.

My go to is Street Tacos Pollo Rojo on skinless chicken thighs. Light coat of olive oil or avocado oil. Season and toss in the air fryer.
15 minutes at 400, flipping halfway through and you're ready to plate.

Have you done a piece on something called Big John’s Beans ‘n Fixins? I saw it once in a grocery store in Wyoming in the 90s. Never tried them, but the name still haunts me to this day.

I served in RC North from around the same time. The Norwegians and Latvians operating out of Meymaneh trolled for contact every week and absolutely hammered the Taliban. The Norwegian colonel commanding the task force was hard bastard and he led better men that Hegseth could ever wish to be.

Fridays, but you gotta go the right FOB for the lobster tails or you get stuck with crab legs.

They're on the menu here in Europe. Saw them today. Same as above minus the bun, it's a normal sesame seed bun.
