You change about a dozen words in a Wikipedia article (you pick which side) and you see what Trumps vision is.

@rArmyReddit Is he including 2/1 Cav?

[ALTWarDepartment @AltWarDept]

Y’all seem surprised there was a shooting on Fort Hood.

And many more are unaware just how big the post really is.

@rArmyReddit Just a guess, the tanks are on a boat in the middle of the Atlantic.

@JohnnyRivers33 Between 2012 and 2015, the Pentagon spent at least $6.8 million to $10 million on "paid patriotism" at professional sports games, including the NFL, These contracts included on-field color guard performances and re-enlistment ceremonies.

From Bloomberg on April 28, the US Department of Defense has formally requested Congress to finalize its renaming to the DEPARTMENT OF WAR via legislation. The Pentagon stated the overall cost of this adjustment totals nearly 52 MILLION US DOLLARS.

@JohnnyRivers33 Considering that was part of the National Security Act of 1947, which rolled the War Dept (now the Dept of the Army) and the Navy Dept (now the Dept of the Navy) into one joint unified department. Plus the addition of the USAF following the split from the US Army Air Corps.

I’m married to an Educational Diagnostician.

The “tests” Trump brags about are likely the Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MoCA)—a brief screening for possible cognitive impairment or early dementia, not an intelligence test.

That’s why you should worry

@KTB_500 @PeteHegseth He needs to talk to the lower enlisted and figure out the mold.

If you can find one; you can import a @Toyota Hilux.

@DanLamothe @johnkonrad Outsource?

There’s something to be said about the mergers of defense contractors starting in the 1990’s

Sure, Cold War was over and the boards needed to keep shareholders happy.

Makes total sense that we have ONE place that can build an Aircraft Carrier.
