Hump Day Shorts – Brinton, Doggy Mask, Relieved commanders, Fallujah

| December 14, 2022

Oh, short articles…OK, sorry.

Remember this sweetie? Sam Brinton of the nuclear waste and stolen luggage?  The administration is trying to distance itself and says Brinton is not one of theirs. Funny thing, according to Wikipedia’s bio he started working for the nuke boys in January this year. Makes him one of yours, Joe.

They served as the deputy assistant secretary of Spent Fuel and Waste Disposition in the Office of Nuclear Energy from January[3][4] to December 2022.   Wiki

“They”. Hmph.

Had this horrible thought: Remember when Biden referred to “dog-faced pony soldiers”? You  don’t suppose….

Has been A WEEK for loss-of-command announcements. The Army Cyber Command relieved a one star.

Brig. Gen. Christopher Reid was serving as head of the J8 staff element at the Maryland-based unified combatant command, where he oversaw planning for resource allocation, force structure and capability development.

They’re right on top of this, Reid was relieved in September and the article came out Tuesday.

The Air Force is not to be outdone:

The 81st Training Wing at Keesler Air Force Base has a new, temporary commander after Col. William H. Hunter was relieved of his duties Tuesday.

In making her decision, Second Air Force Commander, Maj. Gen Michele Edmondson, cited a “loss of trust and confidence in his ability to effectively command the 81st Training Wing.”  MSN

The Navy doesn’t seem to have relieved anyone lately – perhaps they are tired firing the  commander of the USS  Normandy while it was still under way* after a four-way in one week in June. Too, as we said earlier they just dumped the Academy football coach. Been a rough year.

The Navy announced that LHA-64, the newest America-class amphibious assault ship, will be named “Fallujah” in honor of the Marine battle there. I stand second to none in praise of His Misguided Children, and even have a couple on the family – heck, I let one marry my daughter.  But doesn’t it feel a bit odd to name an amphibious assault ship in honor of a battle fought in a landlocked desert city?Military Times

*  I checked and apparently my original spelling, ‘under weigh’ is now considered obsolete. Probably because no one remembers whether the e or i comes first.

USS Fallujah, a “Marine” battle huh? Funny, the only MoH awarded for that battle was Army SSG Bellavia from my INF BN, 2/2 INF.

5JC

Marines eh? Funny story…

Anywho…

Briton was “selected” by the F. Joe Biden administration but not appointed, which is why they are saying they aren’t theirs. Selections like that are developmental so that whoever gets it is next in line for E Level leadership.

Correct link for the newly fired One-Star:

I’m just glad they didn’t name another boat after some deranged polesmoker.

The USS Sam Brinton. Navy has a problem with crew members stealing the seabags of Sailors from other ships when they disembark.

jeff LPH 3 63-66

Shore patrol should be staking out the bag thieves so that they could bag them in the proccess of stealing the bags or jus bag them to stop stealing the bags. I must be half in the bag for typing this out even though I don’t imbibe in adult beverages. Later Alligator

Green Thumb

Nah.

Sam Brinton will be securing luggage and other “things” at All-Points Logistics in the near future.

Phil Monkress cannot afford to miss out on this diversity hire.

tshe

… as well as wearing the contents of said seabags.

Skivvy Stacker

But…the USS Sam Brinton is a stealth ship, in that you don’t really know if it’s armed or not.

jeff LPH 3 63-66

How does the Navy get LHA to stand for amphibious assault Ship. The Mc Nanamara Boondoggle USS Iwo Jima class LPH’s stood for Landing Platform Helocopter. WTF.

jeff LPH 3 63-66

Forgot to add in the above short article rim shot on the pair of skivvies.

Martinjmpr

Light Helicopter Amphibian maybe? I dunno, the Navy does bizarre stuff with acronyms. Like in WWII when they came up with a class of escort carriers with the designation CVE and the sailors joked that CVE stood for “Crude, Vulnerable, Expendable.”

jeff LPH 3 63-66

Was thinking landing Helocopter Amphib but they now carry Marine Ospreys so your right on the acronyms, although like I mentioned above the IWO JIMA class LPH acronym fit the job that it was designed for sending in the Marines behind the enemy lines which if I remember was called “Vertical Envelopment”

To be short about it, these are prime candidates for the SPoTW Thread. Too bad these idjits couldn’t have been fired as quickly as (BEAT) Navy’s coach was. It was rumored that (BEAT) Navy’s loss against (GO) Army had nothing to do with his job loss. That’s their story and they’re sticking to it, over there.

Is it still not considered geigh if one is under weigh?

Hack Stone

He still has a better winning percentage than the DoD audit results, yet they keep their jobs.

It’s no weirder than the Army naming one of its land-locked heavy divisions after a Navy ship. 1st Armored Division AKA “Old Ironsides.”

“Study Suggesting Unvaccinated Should Pay Higher Car Insurance Premiums Draws Outrage”

https://www.foxnews.com/media/study-arguing-unvaccinated-pay-higher-car-insurance-premiums-draws-outrage

“A new study published this month in The American Journal of Medicine claimed those unvaccinated from the COVID-19 virus were more likely to get in traffic accidents, drawing outrage on Twitter. The study’s authors suggested insurance companies should make changes to policies of unvaccinated individuals.”

“The observed risks might also justify changes to driver insurance policies in the future,” the Canadian researchers advised.”

“The principal investigator for the study, Dr. Donald Redelmeier at the Sunnybrook Research Institute, claimed his research “demonstrated traffic risks were 50%-70% more frequent for adults who had not been vaccinated compared to those who had.”

*Continue*

“This does not mean COVID-19 vaccination directly prevents traffic crashes. Instead, it suggests that adults who do not follow public health advice may also neglect the rules of the road,” he concluded.”

“As the report went viral late Tuesday, medical professionals and scientists weighed in on the controversial study.”

“Here is a joke of a study claiming the unvaccinated are involved in more car accidents. There’s a lot wrong with it,” Dr. Clare Craig, a British diagnostic pathologist wrote in a Twitter thread.”

“Craig argued the study was flawed for a number of reasons, including lumping in unvaccinated pedestrians injured in accidents.”

“These claims are based on accidents which resulted in hospitalization. Each person injured is referred to in the paper as a ‘crash’ – even when the injured person was a pedestrian!” she wrote.”

I want to apologize for that university which resides in my state. I don’t know those people, nor do I care to.

So, 2 states with all data weighted (say you) by age group but compared to 2019?

In a word: data.

Really useless, shitty data.

Lies, damned lies, and statistics.

Not only are Republicans five years older on average than the mush wiser Democrats; a histogram will quickly show they have a much larger elder population as well.

A long, long time ago, a member of the ninja family raised a hand during a class and asked an Elementary School Teacher about the “I before E, except after C” rule…

The question was “But Mrs. So and So…What about the words “Science” and “Conscience”?

Mrs. So and So was caught off guard by a 4th Grader…and pretended to have not heard the question…

Two things:

Shorts for that Brinton character: 8420-00-782-6405 Drawers, Green OG-107, size Extra-Small (26-28 inch), 3-Pack $9.99

As far as that Doggy Pup Colonel and his Aviator’s Wings, must not have been much of a pilot, as Zero Air Medals are shown in his rack. / s

Claw:

Extra-Small?

😆😂😅🤣🤭👏👏👏👍👍👍👍

Claw

Yep, Extra-Small for him.

Now as far as the Round Ranger, he should be able to get into these:

I think those still wouldn’t fit our portly friend.

Is the Round Ranger STILL A-Around?

Thank You for the new NSN, Claw!

I’m sure he is, and he’s probably still going to the local Hooters running his suck about his days as a “real-deal” Airborne Ranger.

Mick

“Airborne Ranger”

Even as a Marine, I smell shit whenever I hear someone start blabbing about being an “Airborne Ranger”.

MustangCPT

That’s kind of the point. This is William Derek Church we’re talking about here. I only use this term when referring to Church and ThAt OtHeR cLoWn WhO sHaLl ReMaIn NaMeLeSs.

Mick

Yup; got it.

Wasn’t intended as a dig at you.

I’m talking about POSers using “Airborne Ranger” to describe themselves.

Hack Stone

Always a spot at his table in the event that Will Chamberlain shows up. Did Round Ranger save Will Chamberlain’s life, or did Will Chamberlain save Round Ranger’s life? The lifesaving maneuver was when the one pitching used a condom.

Hack Stone

When sits around the barracks, he sits around the barracks.

Do you suppose that trailer he and his lovely bride are residing in is listing to one side? Not enough money to fix up the homestead when his spends all the child support his wife gets at Hooters.

Ok. THIS is the correct thread. I’m sure he has a fabulous wedding gown. If not, I’m sure he can “acquire” one.

Does he get to go to a women’s prison?

MustangCPT

Well, that’s an interesting question. He’s not claiming that he’s trans and I don’t think he did any hormone therapy or anything. It doesn’t matter, he’s either going to be dealing with the BTJT mafia or Strap-on Sally and her crew. He’s fucked either way.
