I do not understand the fetishization of  signing a document as “CSAF 23” or “SD 29” or whatever. We know who you are and IDGAF what number you happen to occupy in that seat, it’s weird and irrelevant.

Some slight allowances for POTUS, especially since we’ve had two recently-ish that shared the same last name e.x. Bush 41 and Bush 43.

It just strikes me as self aggrandizement 🤷‍♂️

Also since we’re playing fuck-fuck games with stuff that is irrelevant, SECDEF doesn’t actually have a signature block at all. If you didn’t already know, you actually wouldn’t know who this memo is from.

I mean it’s back to basics people. If we can’t even trust you to sign your name right how can we trust you to run the Department of Defense??

/sarcasm 😅

I thought the same thing when I first saw it, but the letterhead was a dead give away for me.

I like that haha. Someone give Pete and Handball Dave jerseys with their names and numbers on them. Maybe Boeing, Lockheed et al can have sponsorship patches and everything.

Too bad Panetta wasn’t named something more like Matthew Johnson, he could have signed as “MJ 23” 🏀

The funniest one yet…Ft. Bragg is back… but it’s a different Bragg!!

TBH Ft. Liberty was the worst rename by far. They seriously couldn’t find a valorous soldier from North Carolina to name it after when given the chance??

This is fine by me. I will be mad if any bases get re-Confederatized.

Fuck the Confederacy, if they wanted bases named after their generals they shouldn’t have sucked at war so much. We are the Union Army by god and we stopped their seditious asses into the ground.

I’d rather have Ft. RipIt than some dickhead loser Rebel general 🇺🇸

Then why was the previous administration so focused on changing it?

To be fair, they didn't suck at war.  They were far better at it man for man than the north was.  If the Confederate Army had the same population, economy, and industrialization to draw from that the Union Army had, the world would be a very different place now.  I'm a solid northerner, but to say the Confederates sucked at war because they lost is like saying Sparta sucked at war because they were conquered by Rome.

And to the FAA thing, HeloDude is spot on.  The only reason to change it in the first place was politics, so to call out someone for lack of focus for changing it back is a bit ironic.

They sucked at war. Fucking lost, bad. Seditious traitors and they got what they deserved. And I don’t need a civil war history lesson, I went to Virginia public schools 😊

How about this: can name my taint after a confederate general so when BQZip’s mom licks it she can fondly remember the Confederates. She’s been sucking dez nuts longer than the Confederacy lasted.

But you damn sure better not name a UNION army base after one.

So nsplayer’s political moratorium ended with the Biden administration?  Guess I can’t blame the guy. I think we’re all trying to pretend it was just a bad dream.
