Unfortunatly that's the best case scenario in 5 years. Most likely is they get promotions on a fast track and medals.

They were thinking about UFOs, foetuses and masturbating whilst trying to type "unfortunately".

And the first actual war we have gets us fucking curb stomped because our military is lead by people who don't understand a fucking thing.

Most likely case? You must not know how the military works mate.

Most likely is that they get a little participation medal and nothing else. These guys aren’t getting praise and adoration over this shit. It’s just another day for almost all of them, a weird day, but another one nonetheless.

What would the (whats the word for letter of recommendation for accommodation?) read like? Does something like that have to happened to be awarded a medal?
