Fucking provocateurs. Let them rot.
"The U.S. Army #Europe and #Africa Command said that the three soldiers' bodies were recovered together with their armoured vehicle trapped in a peat bog in a training ground just 10 kilometres away from the #Belarusian border."
And the reaction of their supervisors? They had a good experience....
"Lieutenant Junior Grade Eric Costello, from the #US #Navy Underwater Construction team said: "The conditions when we got out here on the site were not like anything that we’ve ever had to dive through before, so, just the amount of mud, diving in a peat bog, you know, just complete zero vis (vision), hard to move kind of diving. It's been an interesting experience for us.""

The US should sell off all of Its #Army equipment to Europe. The US does not need an army. For 250 years of its existence, its only been the good guys and not the oppressors 1/10th of the time. The rest of the branches, including the national guard will defend us just fine. The Army was spoken against by most of the founders, why the second amendment was created, but the #Navy is in the constitution. With a self-defense force no one can invade the Americas, there is no logistical possibility for it to happen. We can provide air support to our allies, but an army is just there to steal land replace dictators we don't like with ones we do like.
Need a strike force? We have the SEALs, The US air force is the largest air force in the world and the US Army is the second largest and the navy is the 4th largest. No one can touch our continent from outside. If we somehow do require an army, we can easily have the national guard hold a draft, and people will line up to fight if the cause is just. No more temptations to put boots on the ground ANYWHERE
Eliminating the army would cut the military budget by 1/4th that could go into so many other projects the Army is currently sucking up.
Europe however CAN be invaded by land and needs a united army badly. Selling our Army weaponry to them would boost our coffers and defend our allies.
Mind you none of this will happen unless Trump is no longer in power.
OTD in 1941, Britain's Mediterranean Fleet sank three heavy cruisers and two destroyers of Italy's Regia Marina https://toilet-guru.com/ship.html?s=mb #navy #history
Toilets on board ships are called heads. Learn why,…
Toilets of the WorldA fmr #AirForce fighter pilot, Maj Anthony Bourke, added: “When you disclose operational security, people can get killed.” He said that “these things are not taken lightly. I have never met anybody in the #military who does not know this.”
#Hegseth, a fmr #FoxNews weekend host, served as a #NationalGuard infantryman.
Cmdr Parker Kuldau, a fmr #Navy F/A18 pilot, called Hegseth’s disclosures, & subsequent response to them, “infuriating.”
In #AircraftCarrier “ready rooms,”where flight squadrons spend their time when not in the air, crews burn instructions to destroy them.
“It’s important to understand the degree that #OPSEC is involved in every aspect of your life on an aircraft carrier. Red Sea ops are conducted in complete silence—no one is talking on the radio. Because everything can be heard by somebody,”said fmr #Navy Capt Joseph Capalbo, who commanded a carrier air wing & 2 F/A18 squadrons, referencing operational security.
“We intentionally don’t share plans w/people who don’t need to know,” said one #Navy F/A18 pilot, who has flown frequently in missions in the Middle East. “You don’t share what time we’re supposed to show up over a target. You don’t want to telegraph that we’re about to show up on someone’s doorstep; that’s putting your crew at risk.” He & several other current & fmr pilots spoke on the condition of anonymity to avoid reprisals from the #Pentagon & from #Trump allies.
Worse, they said, is that…they can no longer be certain the #Pentagon is focused on their safety when they strap into cockpits.
“The whole point about aviation safety is that you have to have the humility to understand that you are imperfect…Everybody makes mistakes. But ultimately, if you can’t admit when you’re wrong, you’re going to kill somebody because your ego is too big,”said Lt John Gadzinski, a ret #Navy F14 pilot who flew combat missions from aircraft carriers in the Persian Gulf.
The news that snr ofcls in the #Trump admin discussed plans on #Signal, a commercial messaging app, for an impending attack angered & bewildered those who have taken to the air on behalf of the #US.
The mistaken inclusion of the editor of #TheAtlantic in the chat & #Hegseth’s insistence that he did nothing wrong by disclosing the secret plans upend decades of #military doctrine about #OperationalSecurity, a dozen #AirForce & #Navy fighter pilots said.
