Military Minute 3 Feb 24

I'm Papa Penguin and this is your Military Minute.

Well, watched the testimony of all the senior enlisted leaders. Underwhelmed to say the least. They mentioned the GAO report a single time and then pretended it didn't exist. It was a total PR stunt.

I do take umbrage with the title of the Task and Purpose article. While the SEL's did use civilian buzz words, at no point did they make the argument the military should behave like a civilian organization. Task and Purpose, you should do better.

And the Space Force is actually going to send Guardians into space! I didn't use a Guardians of the Galaxy joke because that was just too on the nose.

I got the sweet Avengers pic from here: https://comicbook.com/marvel/news/avengers-infinity-war-guardians-of-the-galaxy-space/
Pretty sure this is owned by whomever owns the Avengers rights now a days. Don't due me or issue a copyright strike.

Lastly the upcoming giveaway for 100 subscribers. It's going to be something decent that you could actually use in your daily life. And it'll officially mark you as a plank owner. If you are outside of the US I may have to substitute it for something your less freedom loving government will allow. Either way, I think you'll enjoy it. So don't slack and sign up on YouTube. As of right now there are zero folks signed up. So your odds of winning are pretty good.

I may not be able to do a live as I can't get that function to work on YouTube yet. I'm a bit of technological luddite on that front. And I don't have a tech whiz like @insanewheels to figure it out for me. He's out of my price range. So I'll keep plugging away to figure it out.

And that's your Military Minute.
