What about Black Transgendered Worthless Fire Chiefs Month? National Socialist Mayors Who Supported Fidel Castro Month?

(insert evil laughter)

Fine by me. After all, we don’t have White History Month either.

This should have never happened in the first place.

Enough of this division. Thank God.
Let’s celebrate our identity as AMERICANS instead!

As Hegseth has said, the primary focus of the DOD is lethality. About time.

All this gender and race crap has gotten out of hand.

I had a kid school me on how there is black and brown people, and how the brown people have different subdivisions.

All these managers in the past that allowed this crap to happen: WEAK.

One of the 1st things we were told in basic training in 1982 “there is no White, There is no Black, the is no Hispanic here. Here you are all GREEN”!

Highlighting differences is an obstacle to good order and discipline. It should of never been allowed in the US Military in the 1st place.

When I was in a combat arms unit I remember how upset the brothers got when one of the white guys decided he had to wear a non-uniform “doo rag”. Caused such a kerfuffle that the doo rags were banned for all thereafter.

Uniform means uniform.

Good ones.

We can still celebrate them here on FR if we aren’t too exhausted from Kwanza and the rest.

There is a Youtube feature with appropriate festive foods to serve.

“What is appropriate food for Black History Month?
You can enjoy notable recipes like collard greens, cornbread, baked macaroni and cheese, chicken and dressing, sweet potato pie, and banana pudding — just to name a few soul foods menu favorites. These recipes are part of the authentic soul food family.”

As late as 2001, some DIs were saying that... at least at Ft. Benning.

RE: we don’t have White History Month either.

Darn. I bought the 5 lb. Quaker Grits and the Family Size Wonder Bread and now it’s off? So, all to myself.

All that food....

"Identity Months Dead at DoD,"

Everyone got hoodwinked for a while. Part of the enemy plan, "Divide the united". Big media went right along with it. All that BS was meant to divide Americans based on skin color. It was all Communist horse s***, supported by indoctrinated Americans who jumped on the hate whitey, kill whitey bandwagon at their universities of deceit.

You can’t do one without them all wanting equal treatment. This is the right action. We didn’t have Black History month when I was a kid and I survived...

Good line from the movie Taxi (2004) with Queen Latifah I watched last night.

Co-star Jimmy Fallon as the cop sidekick ended up breathing nitrous oxide from open tanks and his voice went low.

“Oh, great. Now I sound like Barry White’s illegitimate white son.” Line was ad-libbed and put in the “deleted scenes.”
