Maybe he was sitting on his helmet so his balls didn’t get blown off and forgot to put it back in before exiting the aircraft.

Wonder Why Soldiers Don’t Know Anything About Small Arms?
Wednesday, June 3rd, 2020
It’s stuff like this. This is a screenshot from a popular website for Soldiers studying for promotion and monthly/quarterly boards. As you can imagine, lazy Senior NCOs who sit on those boards also use this unofficial site to harvest questions, rather than the actual official, doctrinal publications. Apparently, it’s been like this for years. It isn’t going to get any better unless switched-on Soldiers take the time to learn it correctly and pass that information on to their peers and subordinates.
If you want the latest on small arms for either general knowledge or to prepare for a board, visit www.armyadp.com/weapons-tc-3-22.9 to review questions derived from TC 3-22.9.
I’d like to thank SFC Steffan for bringing this issue to my attention.
Canadian Military Seeks Easter Island Targets
Wednesday, March 18th, 2020I know it’s not nice to make fun, but come on, this is just begging for it.
Canadian solicitation number W0142-21X003/A, for “Target Mannequins” is pretty extensive. But on Page 26, they used the drawing above to depict the targets they are looking to buy. For a second I thought they were trying to depict a guy using on of those toilet stools to gain some leverage.
But after a quick discussion we came to the general consensus that it was the Easter Island-style Ma’oi Targets they were after.

But seriously. “Ron” we don’t sell ANYTHING. That might be why you can’t find any prices.
What’s Old Is Trendy Fashion – Landlord Mixed-Media Utility Vest
Wednesday, November 6th, 2019
Hip Hop fashion brand Landlord has created this abomination, their “Mixed-Media Utility Vest”
Which is obviously based upon the US Issue Tactical Load Bearing Vest, originally designed in the 1980s.
Apparently, designer Ryohei Kawanishi had the idea to make a Beige/Burgundy/Teal version of the TLBV in Houndstooth weave Wool and Nylon mesh, set off with Gold-tone hardware. At least he went with the more modern Enhanced design with mesh panels. Imagine the heat from all of that Wool.
Just in case you want to fit in at the next dance battle, you can get yours for just $600 from ever-so-trendy Barney’s.
