We had our mandatory “Diversity and Inclusion Festival” this past Monday.
It was all about everyone but YOU, whitey!
The public affairs office put out the photos on social media declaring what a success it was. It was kicked off by none other than General (w/ FOUR SHINY STARS!) ******, son of the mighty ********* ******* himself…. The PAO told us that “we have much work to do” but never specified what that work was, and that “the conversation must go on” but it’s a one-way conversation…. one of our contractors here had the gall to mention that he saw the statues being pulled down in the USA as no different than when the Taliban destroyed the Buddha statues in Afghanistan about 20 years ago. His site manager was forced to make a public apology to the entire division so that his employee wouldn’t be fired and the spot and their company’s contract terminated.
The “conversation to keep going”- it’s this: A bullshit narrative based on the people in suits and people with shiny stars either caving to the mob or trying to appease a mob which can’t think anyway. Trying to assess that last part myself.
My high school government teacher, who runs for state legislature from time to time, told us in 1980 that, “…in 30 years, look around you, and ask yourself if we are not the same socially then as the USSR is right now”. His class was full of Soviet literature, and we learned about “great Americans” like Eugene V. Debs. (Sarcasm intended.)
The officers I work with, some of whom are service academy grads, are a hair’s breadth away from contemptuous stuff against the President in what they say daily. I put up with 8 years of the Chocolate Jesus, an admitted communist, for 8 years without saying a word. It is what they were taught in public school and at their service academies. Many of these guys and gals are hard working, decorated combat vets. Our best and brightest we send to advanced schooling at places like Stanford, Harvard, GWU, Georgetown, and our own elite military service post-graduate institutions. There our best and brightest are inducted into organizations like the Council on Foreign Relations, a very globalist organization.
This is but one reason I hate- HATE- the left so very much. They hated me first. The difference is, when I am surrounded by them, I have to smile and pretend everything is OK, while they shit on everything I have worked for and risked for all my life.
This is where we are.
I just stocked up on more ammo before it was all gone. It’s all gone now. This isn’t people hoarding it up because it will be out of stock–this is regular Americans preparing for war.
So absolutely infiltrated is the Department of Defense that I am sick.
Go ahead and look at BLM’s home page. Anti-family, pro radical LBGT, and proudly Marxist. It’s OK if I wear a Che Guevara t-shirt, or BLM stuff on base, but I dare not wear anything with a Confederate flag on it. I am no longer amazed nor crestfallen at the level of betrayal I have seen from those in high places in my own country. I just wait for the next event, now that all the masks have fallen.
This will not end well. The summer Olympics in 1984 in Sarajevo, fast forward to Sarajevo ten short years later. A totally different place. ….
Now the body cam footage on Mr. Floyd has been released. I knew this would eventually come out. I’m not mad at black people. I’m not mad at cops. I’m not mad at the late Mr. Floyd. I am furious at those who used this to inflame emotionalism, and as a device to get people hating each other and (further) destroying America.
Those people are not confined to any particular skin pigmentation but they are pretty much confined to one particular ideology.
And they need to face the music.
I saw this coming a very long time ago.
———————————————————————
At the mandatory “struggle session,” the female academy grad major in our shop starting wailing that, because ICE is seizing imports of computers from China, some school district in the South won’t be getting the computers they need- with the tacit implication that Trump is really bad and stupid.
Since she brought it up, I said, “Fuck them and fuck China. I may have a job with ICE in the next few months”. I would gladly execute such orders at this point in our history. (Actually did get on the list for a job in TX with ICE. I didn’t bring this up, but I’m just tired of the constant din of “Trump hates old people and children”.)
It’s like that in there. Every. Single. Day. I’m just trying to keep up with work.
I don’t talk politics at work, except any policy decisions which affect us. And that is something we should expect to do, with professional detachment. When Chocolate Jesus was Da Man, I did the same without comment at work.
It’s borderline Article 88 in here. Every. Single. Day.
“Any commissioned officer who uses contemptuous words against the President, the Vice President, Congress, the Secretary of Defense, the Secretary of a military department, the Secretary of Transportation, or the Governor or legislature of any State, Territory, Commonwealth, or possession in which he is on duty or present shall be punished as a court-martial may direct.”
Right after that, the same officer gushed that we have to listen to the Dye-versity & Inclusion propaganda lecture from the outgoing Chief of Staff of the Air Force and from our own four-star commanding general.
By that point I had my earplugs in, and I mentioned that I had already taken whatever level SERE training I am supposed to have. Then I mentioned the story of Captain Umberto “Rocky” Versace, who, while captive in a Viet Cong POW camp would be forced to sit and listen through the political lectures, and remark to his captors, “I have to sit here and listen to you, but I don’t believe a damn word you say.” He was heard loudly singing “God Bless America” before the VC beat him to death. About ten years ago, Rocky was finally awarded the Medal of Honor.
I read about him in junior high school when I read COL James N. Rowe’s “Five Years to Freedom”. I guess those kinds of books aren’t important anymore for aspiring officers – just PC tripe from Maya Angelou.
CODE OF CONDUCT FOR THE U. S. FIGHTING MAN
1. I am an American fighting man. I serve in the forces which guard my country and our way of life. I am prepared to give my life in their defense.
2. I will never surrender of my own free will. If in command, I will never surrender my men while they still have the means to resist.
3. If I am captured, I will continue to resist by all means available. I will make every effort to escape and aid others to escape. I will accept neither parole nor special favors from the enemy.
4. If I become a prisoner of war, I will keep faith with my fellow prisoners. I will give no information, or take part in any action which might be harmful to my comrades. If I am senior, I will take command. If not, I will obey the lawful orders of those appointed over me and will back them up in every way.
5. When questioned, should I become a prisoner of war, I am bound to give only name, rank, service number and date of birth. I will evade answering further questions to the utmost of my ability. I will make no oral or written statements disloyal to my country and its allies or harmful to their cause.
6. I will never forget that I am an American fighting man, responsible for my actions, and dedicated to the principles which made my country free. I will trust in my God and in the United States of America.

I didn’t mention to anyone that, about a year ago, one of these little dindu bastards to whom we’re collectively groveling tried to rape my daughter.
I don’t blame black people for this.
I blame him.
He’s out on bond, charged with aggravated sexual battery. His Momma had the audacity to try and confront my daughter in a public place a few months back. She should be thankful that I wasn’t there, but it’s quite likely that she never had a man in her life who was around long enough to do anything more than impregnate her, so she isn’t familiar with such a concept.

Thank you for eight years of Obama-era field grade officer promotions.
Shit is gonna get real pretty soon, I fear.
L
I have no doubt of that.
Vote Trump back in..... its the only solution.....
He’s slowly weeding out the Pentagon....huge job....
I agree with everything the patriotic anonymous officer wrote.
Just one teensy nitpick: It was the Winter Games in Sarejevo in 1984, not the Summer.
I think everyone’s going to be surprised when TSHTF.
The Kenyanesian Usurpation corrupted our ENTIRE government, military included.
Obama is PRECISELY what the founders were trying to prevent when they put natural born citizen in the Constitution.
The only flag officers we have left ALL saluted the transgendering of our military.
The current officers serving in our military went to the same schools (indoctrination centers) that the rest of our population went to. Eight years of Obama purging old school Patriots from the officer ranks with the Infamous questionnaire he sent out early in his first term and we have an officer corp. populated with Woke officers.
I guess with the military going tharn, I will visit the great web site www.WeAreOnOurOwn.com for further instructions.
We must tighten the old law describing Natural Born Citizen to the truly original meaning — that is, born on U.S. Soil to TWO, count ‘em, TWO U.S. Citizens.
“...everyone but YOU, ...” (off topic)
That’s how I feel EVERY TIME I got to a parking lot and TRY to park as close to the door as possible.
There is a RESERVED parking spot for just about everyone but ME!
Handicapped (you know, all those EMPTY spaces closest to the doors).
Police (nice, but I’m NICE) (always empty)
Employee of the month (Just give them $50 bucks!) (usually empty)
Veterans (I’m a vet, but I was in the reserves during Vietnam, so I won’t park there so REAL vets can) (always empty)
I don’t begrudge any of the people who DESERVE to use these spaces, but they mostly go UNUSED or used by people who don’t deserve to.
My father (may he continue to BURN IN HELL), had one. He had had both hips replaced (twenty years apart). That was his excuse to get one (handicapped permit) and he was a Democrat. He walked just FINE!
Solution:
Make every OTHER good spot a handicapped spot. As we can all see, that would be MORE THAN ENOUGH!
Do away with all other “ENTITLED” parking spaces. We ALL are entitled in one way or another.
Maybe they should create spaces for “All Other Entitled”.
You know, like all those lists to pick from and the last one is “Other”. /s
Just TRY to find an empty Handi-capped spot in Arizona after 10:00AM.......ANY DAY. I go to the grocery when I need to, but always before 10AM. One knee replaced and need another, plus severe arthritis. Not complaining at you, but some states give out the disabled placard simply for passing your 65th birthday.
This country is too stupid to live.
Soon fighters & bombers will be swarms of UAV’s with machine learning assistance. So fat chicks don’t have to fly they can sit at there desks eat cheesey puffs & monitor the air battle !
The way I see it (not saying I’m right) the veterans seem to be the only Americans still “squared away” and conscious. (I’m USAF enlisted, 1974-1980)
We seem to be the only ones who still remember American history and tradition. We understand loyalty and integrity and how a “chain of command” works. We know what it means to “pick a hill worth dying on” and there are entire mountain ranges of them appearing in front of us.
The days of the militia will return. And that’s us. Somebody will need to keep the peace and we’re the only ones who know the cost and the need. We will be the teachers and organizers and supply clerks and medics. Old skills will become invaluable, so remember them all and learn all the new ones your head an accept.
We will have a lot of work ahead of us. Buy ammo, yes. And books, too.
I don’t know about full retard, but if he is reelected. Trump needs to go full Stalin on the Joint Chiefs of Staff and senior officers in all branches of the Armed Services.
Thanks Travis!
