As part of improving their "talent management" approach, the Army has released official videos on all 17 of its branches.

Here, for no particular reason, is the best/most important one.

 
I can't see the video from work, but I'll make a few semi-informed assumptions. The video contains:

- Copy-Paste using the mouse and or keyboard shortcuts.
- Learning a language at DLI and then getting assigned to a place where you don't use that language.
- How to say or type "white Toyota Corolla" without a trace of irony. Bonus points if you can make it seem new.
- Use the above for "military aged male." Acronyms help.
- "Going green" by recycling your predecessor's work.
- Pivot tables....god damn pivot tables.
- "What do you mean the CIA won't hire me?!?!?!"
- HUMINT guys thinking they're 007 in a plate carrier.
- Gratuitous shots of soldiers in the field using soldiers who haven't seen the field since a graduation FTX in AIT.
- Not one shot of the box containing D&D material and porn magazines discarded by other units.

I'm pretty sure the Signal video is like the branch: a dumpster fire.
 
FWIW, all sarcasm aside, I thought it wasn't bad. I like the parts dispelling the notion of being James Bond. It did a good job considering you had a handful of minutes AND used the flunky staff at West Point. ;-)

I'm afraid to watch Signal's and would prefer to accept that it sucks like a celebrity sex tape....which is in line with the career field.

Pro patria vigilans....

I thought the speakers did a great job, one looked very distinguished. My only heartburn with it was where they got those attributes. We've got tons of leadership doctrine and intelligence doctrine - I would have thought they'd take critical skills/attributes from those.
