As a 1LT on my first tour in Afghanistan, I remember commenting to the battalion master gunner (E8) that his M9 safety was not a fidget cube to play with. Was told to stay in my lane. Later that week the MG negligently discharged his pistol into the floor of the JOC.
Pro-tip for junior officers:

The #MAGABudgetDisaster would roll back $400 billion in Veterans healthcare.
They don’t care about Veterans, they have always used as political props while taking away our care.
🚨🚨 Trump’s budget director wants to cut $90+ BILLION from the VA budget in the next decade.

While America is focused on indoctrinating our children with rainbows & pronouns, our adversaries are training their children to be warriors.
American world dominance is dwindling and the future is not pretty.
