This is an op-ed by some crusty, old, retired Marine lieutenant colonel in a media site owned by Monster.com. Calling this an op-ed ran by the US military is a big stretch
Yeah it’s not any odficial position by the military or even a proposition…
It’s still an alarming op-ed
Didn’t they get fragged on average like once every three days for an extended period back in Vietnam?
The moment they give me a gun, I’d shoot the guy who gave me the gun and the guy who told him to give me a gun. Make Officers Fragged Again.
Make Officers Fragged Again
MOFA deez nuts
You’d probably want to wait at least a few minutes in that hypothetical unless you were seeking to just be shot by either the second guy or the third guy.
Also, bullets are traceable and fragging worked well in Vietnam because it wasn’t.
How are bullets traceable? There’s no micro stamping and rifling marks, much like other forensics, is suspect at best.
When you have a very narrow range of possibilities, circumstantial and incomplete evidence is very useful both in genuine epistemology and in pinning someone so you have a sacrificial lamb for the crime.
I’ll serve crack before I serve this country.
You could join the
and do both!
the added effect of increasing public pressure to prevent open-ended wars led by unaccountable senior leaders like we experienced in our national debacles in Iraq and Afghanistan.
Ah yes, public pressure keeping leaders accountable, a common occurrence in the US

Please draft me into the military mister porky. I am a very well-balanced individual who can be trusted with military weapons
Critical support for the US military dragging NAFO idiots kicking an screaming into an active war zone to be mulched by Russian artillery.
Lul has there been a further decline in recruitment since brandon implemented the “let-er-rip!” Policy on covid?
I’ll put on a prison uniform before I put on an army uniform.
I swear to fucking god if this actually goes through and Americans don’t burn every city in this country to the ground over it I will turn into a 3rd world Maoist on the spot
wondering if i should just do the passive resistance thing and eat a prison sentence, or if i should go with it until i’m overseas, frag my commanding officer first chance i get, then defect to the other side
Depends who we’re fighting for me. Try to send me to fuckin France or some wacky bullshit like that and I’m just not going. But China or Korea or whatever? Better believe I’m defecting asap
Hypothetically of course, I don’t think the US will ever try to draft me lol
