That's a wrap. Berger fucked up my boot camp...

For the first time ever, the Marine Corps is about to send dozens of women to its all-male West Coast boot camp as the service prepares to meet a congressional mandate to make its entry-level training coed.
About 60 female recruits will begin training at Marine Corps Recruit Depot San Diego in February, multiple officials told Military.com. The plan is part of a test run as the Marine Corps experiments with ways to end its long-held tradition of separating enlisted recruits by gender when they arrive at boot camp.
The service has historically trained female recruits only at Marine Corps Recruit Depot Parris Island in South Carolina. But it is required by law to end that practice within five years at Parris Island and within eight at San Diego.
Don't even care on this one, call me what you like and pound sand cause your concerns, opinions, views etc are irrelevant to me.
For me, this is the dividing line. This is the "old" versus new Corps. San Diego is now co-ed?
Enjoy. I look forward to a totally diminished Marine Corps. Full stop. The revolutionist have won and this organization is fubar.
This is a wrap. No way in hell will you produce Marines with the same ferocity as before. Co-ed training will out of necessity water down the force.

Violence after the inauguration? Yeah...I think so...
via Washington Post
A Black Lives Matter banner and sign were torn from two historic Black churches in downtown D.C. and destroyed during pro-Trump protests Saturday night.
D.C. police said they are investigating the events as potential hate crimes.
In one of the incidents, videos posted on Twitter show a group of people identified as Proud Boys marching with a Black Lives Matter banner held above their heads, then cheering as it is set on fire while chanting “f--- antifa.”
Question. Why do these far right groups attack churches? Because they're soft targets.
This is despicable.
Animalistic.
For some reason those that hate always attack places of worship. The shooter in New Zealand did. That bastard in South Carolina did. The list goes on.
But all that is beside the point.
There will be violence after the inauguration because there are groups of people that are activated for this. The ARIZONA REPUBLICAN PARTY put up an advertisement saying (and I paraphrase) "die for something".
It's like someone wants to relive the "300"!
2020 was bad. 2021 will be worse UNLESS the new administration can get the economy going like gangbusters. If they do then people will be too busy rebuilding their lives. If not then the pissed off will find scapegoats.

Spanish Army Force 35?
#Buenosdías . La unidad de referencia de la Fuerza 35 será la Brigada. Estará estructurada, organizada y adiestrada desde tiempo de paz, en su configuración más próxima a su organización para el combate. #Brigada2035 🇪🇸 #SomostuEjércitohttps://t.co/VgYRBpQmaV pic.twitter.com/OPSlmW6rI0

I imagine they're talking about a force for 2035 but the Google Translate is sketchy.
Interesting artillery piece. Is that one of those "limited" self propelled jobs?

CGI of future French Aircraft Carrier...
Uh, those aren't Rafales on deck! To be quite honest they look a bit like the Brit Tempest but that can't be the case especially with the FISHING DISPUTE which has the UK threatening to send gunboats at French fishing vessels!
