?Col. Blake Ortner briefs Maj. Kurt Kobernik during shift change at the Entry Control Point Nov. 24. Senior leaders took over the duty of manning the ECP so their soldiers could enjoy the holiday off.
For those that didn’t know, TSO is a goof on Nietsche’s “Thus Spake Zarathustra” with the role of the Superman (ubermensch) being Col Ortner here. Can’t say I will ever look back at my time under his “leadership” fondly, but this is a good deed anyway. And there were precious few of those in evidence on our deployment together. Hope the boys enjoyed the day off.

Holy Crap! It’s a hobbit in full battle rattle!
Sorry. Not meant as an insult, just a view on the height difference.
