      Very low paid airmen. Very low paid airmen who never get any special attention from on high. Then one day their CO is told “hey the brass wanna know how much is really in that warehouse”

      Fuck. This is gonna take all day. Round up all the e5 and below and get it done.

    Is this America’s way of saying ‘We’re not using the fear of a vague and unspecified ‘escalation’ to hold back on ATACAMS any more?’
