I don't know what to say. I'm trying to imagine being in formation/inspection, in a platoon full of comedians, and Maria walks front and center.

Those SA80 Bullpup rifles should have been a clue. They do not look anything like an M16

What a f**king moron.

No wonder we are getting our asses kicked out of Afghanistan with these clowns running the show.

The Brit troops in the pic are armed with unmistakable Enfield SA85 bull pup rifles.

“The affirmative action general recently proved via a twitter post that “she” can’t spell the word heroes and can’t tell the difference between a British jet and it’s its load of British troopers from and American one loaded with American soldiers.”

I suspect that some Major did it, but at least she didn’t throw him/her under the bus.

You mean that Major who, just this morning, was quietly transferred to a weather station in Greenland?

That was/is one of the best things about Trump he did his own press conferences tweets etc. For better or worse it was him talking. Not someone behind the curtain

A three star general who has never smelled gun powder. How curious.

And she is now deputy commander of ALL Army training.

I’m guessing she was put there to ensure that ALL Army training includes bits on diversity, Critical Race Theory, etc, and that the instructors can be counted on to flunk out any officer or NCO who displays the least amount of conservative thinking.

She’s married (to a man) and has a daughter. See her wiki bio.

I hate to spoil the fun, but three stars do not write their own twitter posts. They have people and one of them was told to thank the troops and find an appropriate photo to post with it. I suspect that some Major did it

Doesn't matter. The Commander is responsible (an alien concept in today's society). Whoever actually wrote it, SHE is the one who picked him for that job. It makes me wonder what OTHER stupid things she is allowing subordinates to do under her name, and failing to properly supervise.

And if she allowed something to go out to a global audience, under her name, without checking it personally, she's an idiot.

Yet another example of how Twitter can hurt your career more easily than it can help.

Nothing new. During Nam, generals and other top brass would visit our site. They were told not to disturb the operators, and if they did the operators were authorized to defend their position. No random general was authorized to know what we actually did or access the traffic as most of it was SAP codeword.

One such numb-nuts general decided he wanted to hear what I was recording and transcribing, so he leaned over and took my earphones ; I doubt he ever got to hear anything, as I rose, turned and punched him square in the mouth sending him flying across the room spraying blood, then sat back down and continued working.

I could hear the sputtering general frothing, but all his aids told him he had been warned and there was nothing he could do, further, if he persisted he would face charges for accessing material he had no clearance to access. He was hurried away, missing the cheers and hi-fives.

The U.S. Department of War existed until 1947. In 1949, the U.S. Department of Defense was established.

Since the U.S. military hasn’t won a constitutionally declared war since 1945, and since the U.S. military leaders seem to be more interested in wokeness, LGBTQ flag waving and combat gear for pregnant soldiers, and not in defending the U.S. against an invasion at its borders, look for a future name change of the Department of Brass and Delicate Saluting.

I knew they were British because they refused to surrender their weapons before getting on the plane.

can any of them field-strip a M-1 rifle, blindfolded?

When I was a recruit there were only classes on the job to be performed (marksmanship, bayonet training, pulling the pin of a grenade, etc) At the end we went home for a week and then straight to Korea, except for those selected out for Leadership School. At the end of that school you were made a sergeant and sent straight to Korea, except for a few selected out for OCS. Six months later you are a second lieutenant and sent flown straight to Korea in a hurry. Nothing political at all in those days.

Of course and she ought to refrain from using Twitter, she is clueless.
