Just two non-VetBro Afghanistan veterans talking about mental health, veterans’ issues, national security, and being the silliest of geese.

Every third @armytimes.bsky.social cover for my entire career was about the Army’s next rifle.

We’ve changed the PT test like six times in as many years.

Two new camouflage patterns in 15 years.

Still less wasteful than the Navy.
You really gotta wonder what's going on when the Army can't figure out their camo uniform, their rifle, their trucks, or their fucking PT test.

Honestly, later seasons of Parks and Rec. Leslie is a great character study in being an enthusiastic subordinate who can will a project into fruition AND the impact that truly caring for people can have.

If you thought the Coalition Provisional Authority in Iraq was bad, wait until you have some ridiculously unqualified Trump appointee trying to be in charge of Gaza.

And the perennial question: what’s going to happen when American GIs start coming home in body bags?
“The ‘high-level’ consultations have centered around a transitional government headed by a U.S. official that would oversee Gaza until it had been demilitarized and stabilized, and a viable Palestinian administration had emerged, the sources said.”
Exclusive: U.S., Israel discuss possible U.S.-led administration for Gaza, sources say
The United States and Israel have discussed the possibility of Washington leading a temporary post-war administration of Gaza, according to five people familiar with the matter.

A $45M North Korean-style military parade party for Trump’s birthday.

Further politicizing our troops.

And definitely not efficient.

Where’s DOGE on this one?

Part of the frank discussion about #trauma and #PTSD we had in our last episode. It’s important to share our experiences with people we trust; unburdening ourselves of this idea that no one could understand is critical to moving forward from our trauma.

15AUG2027.

The PLAN landing fleet is within unaided sight of Taiwan’s shore and pushing ahead at full steam. Woke bullshit like carriers and jets and armored brigades have disappeared under SECDEF Hegseth, but the PLAN is not unopposed.

“#SOF underpins deterrence in the Indo-Pacific.”

“No one brings easy problems to the Oval Office, but SOF brings solutions.”

“My three priorities are (1) Restore our warrior ethos, (2) Rebuild the military, (3) Re-establish deterrence.”

This has been another reckless, unnecessary, insulting and hugely disruptive mess.

As a 9/11 first responder myself, I continue to be flabbergasted by the outrageous new lows that our community experiences every year.

This is a dark time for our transgender comrades in arms. If that’s you, know that we see you, we hear you, we value you, we appreciate you. Please don’t internalize the terrible things that bigots say about you. You are loved and valued. We will always fight for you.

This is wrong in two ways.

First, strategic uncertainty isn’t something you DO, it’s something you STRUGGLE AGAINST. You want to AVOID strategic uncertainty, not embrace it.

Amateurs with not even a 101-level understanding of what they’re doing.
Bessent: “In game theory it’s called strategic uncertainty. Nobody does it better than President Trump.”

Personally very excited about the prospect that DoD will never acknowledge the damage done in the wake of this administration once they’re gone and never do anything to prevent such things from happening again in the future while carrying on as if everything was normal so as not to appear partisan
>Hegseth cut off weapons to Ukraine without telling anyone
>he’s cutting Strykers, JLTVs and M-10s
>he was using even more Signal chats for official business
>he’s randomly slashing the number of General Officers
>we’re gonna use AI for C3I

HAHA BUT LOOK HE DID SOME PUSH-UPS WITH SOF GUYS!!!

Hegseth is an interesting study in hero worship and succumbing to 3 decades worth of a PR campaign designed to make SOF the answer for everything because they look cooler. He’s praising a single tool in the toolbox because it’s more expensive.
“Special operations have never been more important for our country.”

“Border security = nat’l security. We will get 100% operational control of our southern border.”

“In the past 6 mos, #SOF have removed >500 terrorists. Global partners over 600 more.” 2/n

This episode with @wesleymorgan.bsky.social is going to be amazing.

@dpoejr.bsky.social is still working the editing to make me look just a bit less handsome so to avoid overwhelming our viewers but we should be dropping it soon!

Great first episode. The good looking one talked about knowing that his worst day is behind him, and the peace that comes with that, but also how the worst day still affects him. Profound. Looking forward to future episodes!

Unarguable. Hegseth needs to be fired and prosecuted for his crimes.
“A Servicemember on day two with a clearance would be fired—and potentially imprisoned—for what Hegseth did.” - Max Rose, VoteVets Senior Advisor

But Pete Hegseth? Still SecDef. Still putting lives at risk.

He’s unqualified. He’s dangerous. And he’s got to go.
