It��s the 40th anniversary of Back to School, which features one of the best meta jokes ever.
Rodney Dangerfield hires Kurt Vonnegut to write a paper about Kurt Vonnegut… and Sally Kellerman gives it an F, saying the writer “doesn’t know the first thing about Kurt Vonnegut.”

It's the 40th anniversary of Thornton Melon doing the Triple Lindy and winning the National Championship for Grand Lakes University.

Three weeks into the invasion of Iraq, the 3rd Infantry Division led Coalition Forces in the decisive push to seize Baghdad, marking a turning point in the conflict.

1/4 When I was in Army Basic Training, Columbia Pictures used the 13th training batallion to film the graduation scene for the movie, 'Stripes' with Bill Murray. I was in Charlie Company. Sergeant Blankenship was our drill instructor.

@ChamberofFit Those machines do not work well unless you weigh 100lbs or less.

On 21 March 2003, Dogface Soldiers launched a lightning ground assault from Kuwait to Baghdad—covering 400 miles in just 21 days—and executed the historic Thunder Runs that helped seize the Iraqi capital.

🤣This is a hilarious montage of Chuck Norris jokes.

If you think about it, he really was the first 80’s action hero and pretty much started the genre of 80’s and 90’s action movies.

Devin Bush may have been known for his big hits at Florida State, but I’ll never forget his pick-six against Miami in 1993 to seal the game for FSU. 🍢

The camera zooming in on Dwayne ‘The Rock’ Johnson’s sad expression was the best part. 😂

You can’t take our country — and you can’t take our game.

[Christopher Wipper @SGTWipper1Each]

Here's to the great Robert Duvall.

He served in the U.S. Army from 1953 to 1955, drafted during the Korean War era. Stationed at Camp Gordon (now Fort Gordon) in Georgia, he worked in radio repair and served as a Private First Class (PFC).

Though a Navy brat whose father was a Rear Admiral, Duvall served in the Army, utilizing the GI Bill for acting studies afterward.

He passed away peacefully at home at the age of 95.

[Nick Gillespie @nickgillespie]

RIP Robert Duvall, who played everything from Boo Radley to Tom Hagen to Lonesome Dove's Gus McRae and everything in between. I remember bonding with my own father while watching his unforgettable turn as the monstrous dad in The Great Santini, one of his best films.
