Asymmetric Military

Today's the 233rd birthday of the Army (They don't look a day over 214!). Blackfive has Sergeant Major of the Army Preston's message.

Here's a tribute to the US Army in German. When you're appreciated by somebody outside of your organization, I think, in a way, it's more meaningful.

Here's the Old Guard drill team from the 3rd Infantry Division, the ones who guard the tomb of the unknown soldier. I had the privilege of seeing them carry out their duty at Arlington (I'll dig up the video.) a couple of years back. It's very hard stuff and something I could never do very well.
