Anything short of reports of sexual assault / rape are probably good optics for the military

Yes, the DoD made a team based FPS where all players perceive themselves to be the "good guys" who are all US military, but the other team always appears to be the "bad guys" who were vaguely Arab. And yes you had to do hours of training and sit in classrooms and poo poo in the game before you could play this "we're the always good US military you can't choose opfor" Arab extermination simulator.

I remember the opfor being distinctly Russian flavored when I played it years ago. Bridge was actually a really great simple map design that I’m surprised I don’t see copied in other games (2fort is kinda similar). That said what was funny was that the opfor weapons were better in every way ingame, so when you pick up what was someone else’s M16 it becomes an AK47.

I'm confident that leadership chains will work tightly with and understand the information from medical departments and will take the precautions necessary to prevent spread of the virus and understand concepts such as quarantine, incubation period, etc. The well being of Sailors is the bedrock of mission success, so no way Sailors who are exhibiting symptoms will be sent to their work centers to infect everyone else.

I feel so sorry for any ships that were out to sea on exercises or deployment when this poo poo spread outside of China, because they're likely not going to hit port for a VERY long time now.

One of our pilots was sent to Thailand to do some training exercises and it sounds like he's probably gonna get quarantined before or after he comes back.

No more rotator to Italy. They trying to rebook us commercial. So I’m 75% towards getting sent home to sit this one out on orders and 25% actually going tomorrow.
