If my platoon was one minute late on its mission time on a tac eval, we received a failing grade.

Then again, I was 30 minutes early for a mission, and I got my ass chewed out by the team chief from the DA evaluation team. There I was, getting into it with a LT Col, while I was a 1st LT. I tole him my soldiers needed extra time for training, for a mission that was outside of their usual duties.

On the following day, I would enjoy one of my best moments in an otherwise undistinguished (lol) military career. After the team left, the Deputy CG, BG Archie Cannon strode to the lectern for his remarks. First thing he did was point at me and say, "LT, I'll take the hit for the extra training. Anytime you want to give your soldiers extra training, you have my express permission."

Damn, that felt good...lol

4:13, and still no Biden...WTF?

They’ve added Afghanistan to the WH Youtube feed ... since I posted that it wasn’t there. LOL

Its getting a bit late in the day for Sundowner Joe.

With apologies to Gordon Lightfoot

Sundown(er Joe)

The Adderall’s worn off, the eyes are dull and lifeless,
His Depends needs changin’, Joe’s a real mess,
Sundown, you better take care,
Joe’s in charge of domestic and world affairs,
Sundown, you better take care,
Joe’s in charge of domestic and world affairs.

The news looks a nightmare, but it’s not a dream,
Joe talks but even he don’t know what he really means,
Sometimes I think it’s a shame,
That our fate is in the hands of a man with no brain,
Sometimes I think it’s a shame,
That our fate is in the hands of a man with no brain.

I can picture every move that Joe might make,
Whatever he chooses, it will be a mistake,
Sundown, you better take care,
Joe’s in charge of domestic and world affairs,
Sometimes I think it’s a sin,
That Joe didn’t want the Seals to off Bin Laden.

I can’t but wonder who really runs the regime,
Joe’s not interested ‘til it’s time for ice cream,
Sometimes I think it’s a shame,
That our fate is in the hands of a man with no brain,
Sundown, you better take care,
Joe’s in charge of domestic and world affairs,
Sundown, you better take care,
Joe’s in charge of domestic and world affairs,
Sometimes I think it’s a sin,
That Joe didn’t want the Seals to off Bin Laden.
