To tell the Sec Def "No, I won't be showing up" is deny a lawful order. Your boss can tell you to be somewhere.

If the US Military starts to play political games, like denying an otherwise lawful order because it came from an asshole, they're breaking different parts of their own internal rules.

That said, if the civilian arm in charge of the military, e.g. the executive branch, decides to say that the Army can, and should, unilaterally bomb unidentified boats in their region for 'defence purposes', that's now a lawful order so you can't deny that one.

And as an average joe, you can beat the rap (in thirty years when they pardon you) but you can't beat the ride. Enjoy your DD.

I should clarify - the U.S. Army Warrior Ethos is

I will always place the mission first.

I will never accept defeat.

I will never quit.

I will never leave a fallen comrade.

So... Flying everyone back to D.C. for a pep rally is quite literally making them not place the mission first and violating the first line...

So, yeah, he's planning a coup.

I mean... Unironically, yeah. Do you want to start importing Kei cars? What about ADM, or Euro spec? You want to collect a specific year of econobox or do you want to aim for a high end sports car?

Too many cars.

How do you make Deus Ex The Invisible War look good?

Have Aspyr remaster Deus Ex.

Can't wait to see LRG try to sell a $150 boxed copy of this with no CD in it.

Does... Does that mean he kills them after?

Because I could see that.

Y'all remember when the U.S. Army bombed Pat Tillman and tried to make him out to be a hero?

Not calling the guy anything close to Weasel but, man, they really tried.

I'm straight as all hell and Angel can cuddle me if I can cry in private.

More like Plex but without the 'corporate' that Plex has these days.

Yeah, D gets you at least four entirely different types of cuisine and Australian stuff will still have that Euro/American vibe. Only downside is you'll technically be allowed to eat Vegemite.

Goes both ways, buy the homies a gift.

Also, know their birthdays and things.

I have games on my wishlist from 2015. Almost a decade at this point.

My wishlist exists more to let Internet friends know what to get me when they feel like it.

Hell yeah, I'm gonna have a BBQ and blast some CCR. Flag is gonna be flying at FULL MAST.

Yeah, apparently HR has some issues with "I would slice a Nazis head off for free, don't even ask me what I'd pay to do it."

The venn diagram of people who served and who would be exactly the type to write Helldivers 2 memes on their bullets is pretty close to a circle.

DRG? Wanna bet he's a scout main? That rifle with extra weak shot damage buff, ya know?

Seem very competent, work hard, understand all the processes and help review or improve products...

That way no one comes back to my office to check on me and notice I'm playing BG3 at the desk instead of working.

An urban legend could have a real human as the end of it.

That was, like, 97% of Scooby Doo, man.

Depending on the number of people you have to carry - Toyota. Pretty much anything Toyota.

Yeah, my thought exactly, I doubt Wawa has a fancy term for it but it's better than all your staff coming in or calling on Thursday to see if next week's schedule is posted.

The Ioniq 5 has a better 'cyber' look than the Truck. Like a fat hatchback.
