From anonymous: "316th SFS commander is limiting skill bridge opportunities because he prioritizes time in service. looks like the program needs to be taken away from commanders. Also, shouldn't this be done by program? Each program/certification requires different timelines?” Thoughts on this 🤔 Source: Air Force airman/nco/snco page #skillbridge #dodskillbridge #skillbridgeprogram #transitioningmilitary #military #veterans #militarytransition #skillbridgeintern

Downsizing the military even with the threat from China looming is still a good idea. We are going to spend ourselves into bankruptcy. The Army and marine corp in particular can be downsized. Privatization: The corp of engineers, etc. can all be privatized. Marine Corp: This can be moved to the army and downsized to a division. They can run the US Army amphibious warfare school. I guess they can issue a marine patch to graduates. Remaining corps: All remaining corps should be marine, airborne, and air assault allowing commanders to take initiative and exploit openings on the battlefield. There would only be a total of three active duty corps plus a legion of bankruptcy, criminals, and immigrants. The special forces corp would have their own department in the Army along with their own basic training, specialized equipment, CT Unit with tracking ethos, etc. This plan would save billions of dollars, restore thousands of lives through the legion, and further develop the green berets unconventional warfare mission.

From John C Maxwell's book on leadership comes these humorous actual pieces of advice from the military: 1) Aim towards the enemy - Instruction printed on US rocket launcher 2) When the pin is pulled, Mr. Grenade is not your friend - US Army 3) If the enemy is in range, so are you - Infantry Journal 4) It is generally inadvisable to eject directly over the area you just bombed - US Air Force Manual 5) If your attack is going too well, you are probably headed into an ambush - Infantry Journal 6) Never tell your Platoon Sergeant you have nothing to do - Unknown Army Recruit 7) Don't draw fire, it irritates the people around you - Your buddies 8) If you see a bomb technician running, try to keep up with them - US Ammo Troop

Why the flared Trail Arms? Army, Air Force, and Space Force have used the pick up method where the buttstock is about 3" off the marching surface. The Army is present here for the joint casket watch, why use this fare developed by the Marine Corps? It looks so MUCH better! The individual also has better control of the rifle. Just lifting the rifle, while it suffices for day-to-day moving with the rifle, is a relatively weak look. The flare is much more powerful looking. This team is marching away from their tour as casket watch guards for President Carter. 🔆Education is 🔑! . 🔹Read your manuals! Download them free at the Resources page here: www.thedrillmaster.org .
