If Red Storm Rising has taught me anything, it's the value of the merchant marine

I have two bucket list trips to take with just my dad: college football rivalry weekend in vegas and the WW2 museum in NOLA. I hope you get to take your time; I've always been rushed.

BAH expenses are going to skyrocket with all that new accompanied housing demand.

Reminds me of the debt collection attorney who would absolutely lose his mind if you fought back even a little because he was so used to winning by default or msj.

I'm excited to announce, in association with Warner Bros and DC Comics, I am going to be one the Joker.

Having read For Whom and Farewell in the last year, I would consider neither 'pro-war' but maybe, at certain points, pro-'theres some good in this world mr frodo, and it's worth fighting for.'

The straights are extended sea lanes and the sea lanes are full of mines and when the fuel pumps finally run empty, all the dealerships will declare bankruptcy. All the GOFOs and politicians will look up and shout 'Save us!'... and I'll look down and whisper 'No.'

It's weird. It's like the very idea that Iran can simply threaten to hurt is hurting us. Somebody should write a substack about it.

El Taco Shop is pretty good. That's about it.

Lol. I'm gonna go with no. I'm checking the reg and the intention of medical care does not come up.

Fun fact! If medical personnel engage in hostilities it's considered perfidy and they are lawful targets.

Then I think you're looking at hostile intent. And I'm guessing those marines probably have hostile intent.

You're a JAG on the ground. The sky above you is full of chutes from a disabled transport aircraft. Some are probably aircrew. Some or most are paratroopers. Can you shoot them as they descend?

Distinguish parachuting aircrew from paratroopers though. And the text says "occupants" of disabled air craft. And it states paratroopers can surrender on decent, so could the disability of the aircraft render them hors de combat ?

The thing though is that the animal is chattel. It's a weapon. Personal property etc. So the vet taking care of the dog is just as lawful a target as the maintainer on the flight line. So interesting!

My guess is the paratroopers would be hors de combat but if they engaged in further hostilities they are fair game.
