If you loving morons weren't aware, counterjnshrgencies are fought and won on the battlefields of the poiwerpojnt readyiness slides, the immaculate DFAC benchs with not a stray French fry or boot print in sight, immaculately ordered dumb el rAcks on the airfield gym, green beans cash registers awash with funds, a single patriotic salute to a young lieuntant deploying late after completing many important certificates and the eib at home, raise your fingernajl cut to length not exceeding the tip of your finger, in line with the remaining fingers and thumb all of which have no dirt beneath their nails, to the corner hinge of your clear lens eye protection that shall not be kept around the neck when not worn, salute that man and freeze as revelries plays and a afghan rug merchant continues picking his nose across the street as you hear americas toot toot toot over the loudspeaker, he looks at you from a lovely squat, you look back. There is magazine in your rifle, but you need no bhllets. They wouldn't let you have them. Readiness = green. War on.
