Odierno: Only Two US Army Brigades are Combat Ready

[AWP]

Dear General Odierno,
Two? And this occurred on your watch?

Kill yourself. You're worried about tattoos and a strategic vision...and let this happen?

Take the Smith and Wesson taste test. You've earned it.

Army Chief of Staff Gen. Ray Odierno said his greatest fear is to receive an order to deploy thousands of troops. And with good reason.
The Army has only two combat-ready brigades right now, he said. Even the ones headed to Afghanistan are qualified for the trainer and adviser mission, not combat.

 

[CDG]

Hey, at least those brigades will be full of clean cut and non-inked soldiers! I'll take two BDEs of them over multiple BDEs of those dirty tattoo wearing fellers.

 

[DA SWO]

He needs to go, letters to my Senators going out tomorrow.

 

[policemedic]

Why on Earth would you make that public knowledge? At least make the bad guys work for their intel.

 

[RackMaster]

At least you can field a whole brigade. :-"

 

[goon175]

Yeah, let's just advertise that little tid bit. "Hey world, if you were looking for an opportune time to attack, this would be the moment!"

 

[racing_kitty]

Ray HemorrhOdierno should never have gotten this far. He was a cum stain when leading the Poison Ivy Division. I had thought being given command of a MACOM slated for deactivation would be the final out mushroom stamp on his clearing papers taking him to Ft. Living Room, but I apparently was wrong. His skills in fellatio must be unmatched.

Dumb fuck

 

[policemedic]

Maybe I'm just being ornery, but if a unit is not combat ready it shouldn't be sent anywhere where it might actually, you know...have to fight. Fuck Odierno.

 

[RustyShackleford]

Don't worry, I got 1.6 billion that says Pakistan has our back!

 

[AWP]

Hey, everybody! Watch me raise Free's blood pressure by 30 points.

Fixed it for you.

 

[pardus]

Hey, everybody! Watch me raise Free's blood pressure by 80 points.

I fixed your fix

 

[Chopstick]

And make sure you say it like this: Pok-ey-ston

^^HATE!!!

 

[AWP]

Hey @pardus ? At some point today, if you could go fuck yourself that'd be great.

 

[AWP]

Oh, here's a smilie so no one's offended.

This can't possibly be right! The Army has always stated that it is 100% manned and 100% trained 100% of the time. I mean all those PCS moves keep us fully combat operational right?

I remember when not being "green" across the board on your unit manning report was enough to get a battalion commander cashiered. I guess things have changed.

Don't you have some TPS reports to complete, collate, file and log?
