At least they can grab a beer at night
"There's no enemy to fight here" ah yes, I forgot that every soldier deployed abroad is in combat. My bad!
I'm cracking up
Most of what we did in the Army was standing around with absolutely nothing to do, waiting for end of day release formation...with intermittent naps and smoke breaks)
“Trumps proposal to send the troops to the border would cost $200 million!” As opposed to costing $200 million wherever they otherwise would be
If Vice had watched even the most basic of documentaries or asked any deployed soldier a basic question, they would know that 90% of what the Army does on deployment is sit and wait
Repeat that 5 times a week, and sometimes on Saturdays and Sundays when we all got called in cause some jackwad got a DUI Friday night and the whole battalion had to suffer for it.
Vice is literally gay.
All my deployed friends and family say the same thing. At least these soldiers are guarding OUR borders and doing something relatively safe to earn that paycheck besides sitting around.
Yeah we have a massive freaking military. Station them on the border where we have an actual threat
In all seriousness tho...the entire purpose of having a standing army is to be there - ready in case there's something to do - but most of the time have absolutely nothing to do. This is a good thing.
I agree, but right now there is a literal invasion coming north...
Ya, so they're standing there with nothing to do until there _is_ something to do. That's the purpose.
Vice is so bourgeois and disconnected, they're either dumb or just trying to create a narrative and relying on the ignorance of their viewers. I'd imagine it's mainly the former but clearly they're targeting Trump
Yea, my point is they would be standing in another state doing nothing, so why not station them at the border, at least for now?
True that
I think they are both clueless and creating a narrative.
In fact, the argument can be made that they're actually _doing something productive_ even with "nothing to do" at the border. Otherwise they'd just be back on base napping in stairwells, hiding from the cherry Lieutenant or Sergeant Major.
And _nobody_ wants to get caught napping by the SMAJ!
And it's not like VICE wants them to have anything to do at the border, or they'd be accused of racism/racial violence.
Vice would rather the troops at the border actively defend white America and push back invaders confirmed
Military life is just something the media will never understand. It's...different.
"America's Troops in Japan have Nothing To Do"
Riveting.
Wish I could ping veterans
Having "nothing to do" is inherent to military life. It's pretty much one and the same. Brief periods of excitement and chaos, followed by extremely prolonged periods of boredom and trying not to get into trouble for doing dumb stuff.
For me it was either feast or famine with work load. Some days it was like trying to find kindergarten students something to do so they wouldn’t shout about Destiny 2 loot. And I’ll freely admit that I was oftentimes part of the problem lol
We RAKED LINES IN DIRT because we had nothing to do, ffs.
My air force recruiter loves Destiny 2
"America's Troops at the Border of North and South Korea Have Nothing To Do"
How ghastly.
“Please stop shouting guys, I want to read my book on the job without attracting attention”
Oof, looks like we are being invaded by the gays... <:nervous:359009898115104770>

Based black guy everyone, CivNats are right, they will all be conservative soon! <:really:453005408064241674>
And they will save us from the invasion too!
@Asatru Artist - MD , glad you made it home.
That's a weird looking dog.
Dude something is wrong with that gecko
What kinda fish is that?
