@D_Rives_B@GrahamAllen I think he thought they were like guardsmen in British footguard regiments.
But how would you refer to members of the Old Guard if you were doing it collectively?
@kaukovainio00@PPC4Liberty I know there are fewer WASPS proportionately than when I was a kid, and lots of people whose families haven't been here for getting on 200 years, but honestly it really hasn't made a lick of difference.
Did your ancestors celebrate the Relief of Mafeking?
@kaukovainio00@PPC4Liberty People say "Correct me if I'm wrong" generally because they assume they aren't.
What difference would it make? You're obviously a two-fisted man's man, the kind of guy who walks like he's straddling a beer keg. I'd assume that it wouldn't bother you.
@DougWahl1 Hegseth is the embodiment of a small man. But the thing that might help this soldier is that the "Secretary of War" does have some faint idea of how he should present. If he manages to figure out what Napoleon or Frederick the Great would have done, he will act it out.
@ZeroFox_08 I doubt you're young enough or fit enough to fight for it, so on that your words ring pretty hollow.
Otherwise, how do you know what they fought for? My grandfather, a British immigrant, fought in the CEF partly because he couldn't bear the idea of the Germans landing in Kent.
