An interesting report of a recent training exercise. Surprised to see such detail reported.

Yes, but our force was more diverse than theirs.

Yes, but did they have any four star “female” admirals with balls?

Yikes!

“Seeing no opportunity for victory, American combatants asked for the exercise to be ‘reset’ halfway through.”

That’s because we didn’t deploy our trannies.

The Brits threw the Americans totally off guard. The Brits aggressively misgendered the American soldiers who melted down when the Brits deliberately used the wrong pronouns and gender labels.

OK, now let’s do Regular Royal Marines against US Navy Seals, or Force Recon. Bet the results would favor the special forces, just like this time...

The Royal Marines, along with allied forces from Canada, the Netherlands and the UAE

Well there you go - they ganged up on us. No fair!

Why were they having this?

Is it normal to have this type of exercise?

The solution to this problem is simple. Do not invite the Royal Marines or their allies to any more training exercises. Instead invite a more “woke” force. Maybe they should challenge that Chicago museum that fired all their white staff members.

'The Royal Marines, along with allied forces from Canada, the Netherlands and the UAE, destroyed or rendered inoperable nearly every US'

That's usually how France was stopped back in the day. Throw several nations at them, and eventually they won.

Seems like typical red/blue team stuff. Happens all the time. Great bonding for all.

Now the important question. Was everyone “fully vaxxed”? Or was a vax cert required to play?

Our ‘woke’ military claims “DIVERSITY is readiness!” - guess our folks out at 29 Palms didn’t have enough physically-challenged, multi-gender, ‘undocumented immigrants’ & ‘people of color’ onboard to fight effectively...

Just wait until we release our Krakken on them.

I am referring to Rachel Devine.

There isn't actually all that much meat to this story other than the disgraceful request for a "reset" (unless the reset is a way to restart the exercise and make the most of the training time, any officer that requests a reset in a training exercise just because they're losing should be relieved of command for the thing they were training for).

Of course SOF units beat regular units in an exercise. The SOF units are more experienced, better trained on how to win, probably more familiar with the territory, and this last bit is important... trying to win.

The regular units, while otherwise quite capable, were trying to follow a script, expecting that careful execution of a script was going to be the key to success.

I’ll lay odds there were rules of engagement that hampered our troops.

"“Seeing no opportunity for victory, American combatants asked for the exercise to be
‘reset’ halfway through.”"

The military is merely following the liberal's example of changing the rules midstream
when losing.
