This seems like it would be a tough sell to the average Brit.

[Governor Dinwiddie]

Insanity. There is no upside. It is all downside. Hasn't Europe seen enough of war? When will they learn?

[El Cid]

Just why??
I could understand the United States - Biden needing to protect 10% for the big guy, and Nancy, Romney, and the rest of the Dems wanting to protect their money laundering enterprise. And Lindsey Graham wanting to save whatever unseemly operation he has going on the side over there in the Ukraine - but what does the UK get out of it?

[caww]

At least they’re giving them a heads up - here they get the news they’re being deployed.

[matthew fuller]

August Fool’s Day?

[Williams]

There’s this thing called NATO and they’re supposed to be prepared to fight Russia.

I believe Russia just listed targets it would attack in Britain.

Therfore you tell your soldiers to be prepared for a war.

And screw Russia.

[Secret Agent Man]

Da phuck to that.

Brit soldiers ought to have learned that wwi and wwii entanglements are not something to die for.

I’d tell the officers they can go over there.

Defending YOUR country is what you signed up for. Not being pawns in some exercise again to decimate the white male population.

[Williams]

They told their soldiers to be physically fit enough for deployment.

We have a problem with that?

I think some people here just like to complain.

[Flick Lives]

Army members have been told that they “must be prepared” for the possibility of being deployed to Ukraine to fight in the war against Russia.

We were told Ukraine was winning. Why is this nessesary?

[Tolerance Sucks Rocks]

So, which will hit Pensacola Naval Air Station first? A labor day hurricane (see NWS GFS model) OR a thermonuclear warhead? Either way, I’m in the crosshairs, bois and girls.

[Thunder90]

This is a very idiotic decision. The UK has minimal heavy lift capabilities and their military is smaller than one Russian Army group. Again, Russia is fighting with mostly a JV team and with mostly old Soviet equipment.

[Ciexyz]

We learned in grade school circa 1962 how to prepare for this. Hide under your desk with your head between your knees.

[Licensed-To-Carry]

Why?

[PAR35]

Around 80,000 regulars, 30,000 reserves. What’s that work out to? About 10,000 or so actual combat troops? Maybe a little higer? 15k at the high side?

[robowombat]

W O Carney is the British equivalent of the SGM of the US Army.

[eyedigress]

I will consider the source.

I will also state that anyone in the US Military is subject anywhere at any time.

[Jan_Sobieski]

Charge of the Light Brigade!

[familyop]

To all who are unaware of this,...

Soldiers are being told the same everywhere, and evaluations for readiness are in process. If your nation waited for the enemy to be on your doorstep after gathering other countries, resources and populations, you would lose.

But then there are those who are aware and want you to live under commie/fascist slavery and cruelty.

[joma89]

White soldiers should refuse to fight and make the “asian” muslims fight instead.
