Thanks. I forgot about Ms Piggy with lipstick . If you’re a PSYOPS member lurking around the perimeter, please execute. But then again I’m behind the power curve. Go PSYOPS, Deliver the pamphlets with Ms Piggy’s grease.Chechnya is in so there is your third. Ukraine forces are lathering up their rounds with pig fat just for them.
Not a Psyops member but according to what I’ve read now, one must spend time in the regular army and be 1LT promotable or CPT to try to go Psyops or to go to SFAS.Stand corrected. I think you have to spend several years in PSYOPs (senior 1LT or CPT) before going to SFQC. I mentioned this because my progression include CA, PSYOPS, and SF. Since I left, more changes were implemented. Perhaps current PSYOPS members can give more input.
Concur. Also there’s a pre-selection phase for SF now. Many, many years ago like post-Vietnam era, my pre-selection phase was a 1-day event: 12-mile ruck with 60 lbs in 3 hours, APFT, 100m swim in full uniform + Mattel M-16, and LBE.Not a Psyops member but according to what I’ve read now, one must spend time in the regular army and be 1LT promotable or CPT to try to go Psyops or to go to SFAS.
I feel helpless.Please watch this. Most of you probably have seen this. I’m speaking now as a father and I know most of you can relate. DS communicate the same way to his mom.
For Heather21, I’m signing off. This is now becoming a Shakespearean tragedy. Initially, I thought the enemy was a formidable foe. BasicallyI feel helpless.

Ukraine will fall eventually. And casualties will be horrific. I don’t see how the West can get enough arms (particularly air assets) to Ukraine in time. The way I see it, the only choice we have now is total economic war to strangle Russia and force Putin’s eventual overthrow. It appears that most of the people in the US and the World agree.
.To paraphrase Stalin: How many divisions does hope have?
Agree, it will be interesting. If Putin is deposed and Russia is left weaker, there will be less need to increase military budgets or to build up NATO. On the other hand, if Putin comes out of this stronger, although I doubt he will, NATO will need to bulk up.It’s going to be interesting to watch how this invasion , after it’s over , impacts us in the US (and other western countries)
Assuming no mad man is actually going to launch nukes at us.
Domestic politics, the make up of our military, the view of our military, military budgets, nato, our view of certain countries, etc etc etc——the ramifications from this will go on for years.
Very nice from the front porch of the family home in Massachusetts..
One thing with feathers …
Hope — Emily Dickinson
“Hope” is the thing with feathers -
That perches in the soul -
And sings the tune without the words -
And never stops - at all -
And sweetest - in the Gale - is heard -
And sore must be the storm -
That could abash the little Bird
That kept so many warm -
I’ve heard it in the chillest land -
And on the strangest Sea -
Yet - never - in Extremity,
It asked a crumb - of me.

This would be more the sentiment on the Polish Ukrainian border:
Nadzieja jest matką głupich i zakochanych
It's been thrown in my face more than once over the years.

We should definitely be taking notes from this situation. So should Japan and our allies in the Asia Pacific Region. As Putin pushes in, China is taking notes and basically asking themselves, "what can we do that Russia is doing wrong to improve our chances of taking over Taiwan"?It’s going to be interesting to watch how this invasion , after it’s over , impacts us in the US (and other western countries)
