#1 If this unpleasantness ever ends, perhaps a regiment of the 116th Bde could be integrated into the U.S. Army. A sort of Gurkha RGR contingent as it were.

#2 Won't work. They've heard about the VA.

Snark of the day.

#4 Now you guys see why I loved being with the Kurds. This is typical of their mindset. Warriors. That's why I get so angry that we are selling them out to the f'ing Turks. The Turks are not our allies, and never will be with Erdogan and his gang in power.

Pappy, you made me literally laugh out loud - I can just see trying to get some of those guys to sit through a SHARP brief.
