Photo is of General Schwarzkopf's Personal Security Detail for Delta.  The team came from the Training, Evaluation and Operational Research (TEOD) section of Delta.  All were Squadron Operators.
From Left to Right: Larry A. Steele (1955-2014), Norman F. "Norm" Crawford, Craig "Max" Maxim, General Herbert Norman Schwarzkopf Jr. (1934-2012), Jon A. "Bird" Saterstad (1954-2022), and William F. "Bill Cronin III. The internet, especially the memes, confuse me with my good friend Bill Cronin. I was deployed at Taji #2, assigned to work as an NCO in the Tactical Operations Center, coordinating support for the patrols operating inside Iraq.

@HopalongAsks @grok You can sail from Chicago to France. The map treats Hudson Bay as not a landlock condition but does not extend that same definition to the Great Lakes.

[Benjamin Blatt @bblatt11]

<squints at the Great Lakes states>
This map maker is an idiot.

My nigga, who looked at a map and decided Michigan was landlocked?

[Benjamin Blatt @bblatt11]

@RocketPulpHack @elsathora @RiffTrax I was unaware that the Scandis are in a neck and neck competition with the redcoats for the title of: Total Lack of Taste Buds.
Sad.

[Benjamin Blatt @bblatt11]

The Redcoat mind: Fire Bad. Cooking bad.

In truth, I indeed cannot comprehend such abject lunacy.

[Largacty3 𓅃 @largacty3]

The American mind cannot comprehend the pub cheese and onion roll

Now picture it filled with over 100K drunk cajuns and college students.

Omg this is insane

@historyinmemes On the right side from top to bottom: Norm Crawford, Craig Maxim, and John Staterstad.

@AmericanPraeto2 So is TdA vs. MS13 like McDs vs. BK at this point?

[Benjamin Blatt @bblatt11]

I just realized that some Euros are probably going to disappear in National Forests, many Euros are going to go home allergic to meat, and many Lone Star ticks are going to hitchhike to Belgium and England.

The European mind REALLY should have worked on comprehending before it crossed the Atlantic.

[EF Comix @11975MHz]

There's a reason "redneck" is colloquial to the United States

And in all seriousness, if you decide to visit, say, the Mojave or other desert venues here, take sunscreen and PLENTY of water. It was just a few decades ago that a German family decided to drive out into the Mojave unprepared and they all ended up dead.

And if you decide to visit our forests, show up prepared with insect repellent especially in southeast forests. You don't want to be bitten by a Lone Star Tick. Also, keep in mind, unlike European forests, there isn't a village every few kilometers.

There isn't jack shit except for wildlife.

And for fuck's sakes, if you visit Yellowstone, DON'T GET ANYWHERE NEAR THE FUCKING BISON. THEY WILL FUCKING KILL YOU.

Guys, I think...I think the people running FIFA might be really, really dumb.

[Adam Crafton @AdamCrafton_]

One of my favorite anecdotes from the build-up to this World Cup, which reveals so much about the collision between FIFA and U.S. cities.

The day a FIFA exec told Los Angeles that LA needed to be “put on the map.”

@RocketPulpHack @aelfred_D I have no idea who these people are (please don't tell me).

[Benjamin Blatt @bblatt11]

@RocketPulpHack @AmericanPraeto2 On the ARKA, it's literally for the ergos. FN is marketing the SCAR to PD, Military, and Security Companies who include "must have AR-type controls" in their tenders.

One of the big complaints was apparently the side charging vs. the familiar AR-style charging handle.

[Benjamin Blatt @bblatt11]

@peter__repeater Wild. Per the internet Death Valley and Kyle Field are in the Top 10 world-wide.

Because It Just Means More.

European stunned by...a mid-sized SEC Football stadium.

[Freddy🇩🇪 @FreddyLA7]

This is the most “The European mind can’t comprehend this” moment of my life. One of my friends said, “Punch me five times tomorrow and I’ll still think this isn’t real.”

[Benjamin Blatt @bblatt11]

@RocketPulpHack @NerdMother67 It's real. It's so real that an unbelievable number of astronauts have fled the planet to temporarily escape it.

[Benjamin Blatt @bblatt11]

I got nuthin'

I was unaware that Euros lumped the Amish in with "American Cryptids."

Although "Beware the Yoders of the Cornfields" could be a horror story.

[Elsa @elsathora]

Okay so Amish people are real

@HopalongAsks The actual story behind the alleged production haunting is basically this.
Local kids spent the entire time fucking with cast and crew from the cornfields.

I care more about watching europeans discover how amazing the USA is in real time.
We're winning a generational argument in the most wholesome way possible.
