Biden Orders Selected Reserve and Certain Members of the Individual Ready Reserve of the Armed Forces to Active Duty - Nice DD-214, be a shame if someone NEGATED IT!

By the authority vested in me as President by the Constitution and the laws of the United States of America, including sections 121 and 12304 of title 10, United States Code, I hereby determine that it is necessary to augment the active Armed Forces of the United States for the effective conduct of Operation Atlantic Resolve in and around the United States European Command’s area of responsibility. In furtherance of this operation, under the stated authority, I hereby authorize the Secretary of Defense, and the Secretary of Homeland Security with respect to the Coast Guard when it is not operating as a service in the Navy, under their respective jurisdictions, to order to active duty any units, and any individual members not assigned to a unit organized to serve as a unit of the Selected Reserve, or any member in the Individual Ready Reserve mobilization category and designated as essential under regulations prescribed by the Secretary concerned, not to exceed 3,000 total members at any one time, of whom not more than 450 may be members of the Individual Ready Reserve, as they deem necessary, and to terminate the service of those units and members ordered to active duty.

This order is not intended to, and does not, create any right or benefit, substantive or procedural, enforceable at law or in equity by any party against the United States, its departments, agencies, or entities, its officers, employees, or agents, or any other person.

WIKIPEDIA
Operation Atlantic Resolve, though not a "named" operation, refers to military activities in response to Russian operations in Ukraine, mainly the War in Donbass. It was funded under the European Deterrence Initiative. In the wake of Russia's 2014 intervention in Ukraine, the U.S. and the U.K. took several immediate steps to enhance the deterrence posture along the eastern flank of the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO), including augmenting the air, ground and naval presence in the region, and enhancing previously scheduled exercises.[1]

The US described the activities as taking measures to enhance NATO military plans and defense capabilities and maintaining a persistent presence in Central Europe and Eastern Europe.[2] Atlantic Resolve rotations are overseen by a regionally aligned headquarters there.[3][4]


US Army Europe
Since April 2014, U.S. Army Europe and Africa has led the Department of Defense's Atlantic Resolve land efforts. Atlantic Resolve provides rotational deployments of combat-credible forces to Europe to show our commitment to NATO while building readiness, increasing interoperability and enhancing the bonds between ally and partner militaries.
As of Nov. 2021, the newly reactivated V Corps has assumed command and control of all Atlantic Resolve rotational forces.
(So, they reactivated V Corps. Here's the thing about V Corps. It's the only authorized European unit for fucking NUKES)


Gee, Joe, whatcha need 3 Divisions for?

Pardon me while I go to the REEEEING DOME.

I know it's different in the National Guard, but I think it was @Jet Fuel Johnny who said there have been times when the NGs were deployed during riots, but had the BCGs removed from their rifles.

Like, what's even the point? If you're gonna make them ineffective, at least give them baseball bats or ax handles to defend themselves.

Nasty Girls, on patrol or whatever in Minnesota, shortly after George Floyd. Tell me what's wrong with them.

Hint: It's related to the rifle they're carrying

I mean, you can still bayonet or butt stroke someone. Not ideal obviously. Do Nasty Girls even get bayonets?
Even beat cops are allowed to whip out the patrol rifle at their discretion, if the situation calls for it. That's just absurd.
You better believe you'd see a thin blue firing line if it called for that.

The army stopped bayonet training years ago. Still give them the M9, but don't teach them the stab stab part. The marines still do
 
They are gonna do a gayer, more retarded version of the White Feather shit aren't they?
Yeah, but shit fucking backfired hard.
"Almost the last feather I received was on a bus. I was sitting near the door when I became aware of two women on the other side talking at me, and I thought to myself, 'Oh Lord, here we go again'. One lent forward and produced a feather and said, 'Here's a gift for a brave soldier. I took it and said,' Thank you very much- I wanted one of those.' Then I took my pipe out of my pocket and put this feather down the stem and worked it in a way I've never worked a pipe cleaner before. When it was filthy I pulled it out and said, 'You know, we didn't get these in the trenches', and handed it back to her. She instinctively put out her hand and took it, so there she was sitting with this filthy pipe cleaner in her hand and all the other people on the bus began to get indignant. Then she dropped it and got up to get out, but we were nowhere near a stopping place and the bus went on quite a long way while she got well and truly barracked by the rest of the people on the bus. I sat back and laughed like mad."
Perhaps the most misplaced use of a white feather was when one was presented to Seaman George Samson, who was on his way in civilian clothes to a public reception being held in his honour for having been awarded the Victoria Cross for gallantry in the Gallipoli campaign.
Its almost like women are opportunistic whores who will go after anything they perceive as an easy target.

Nobody gets bayonets these days. Modern rifles are too light, too fragile, and have too many moving parts to be suitable as spears in close combat. There's a reason infantry muskets were so much longer than those issued to specialist troops, and it wasn't because their commanders hated them and wanted to make their lives miserable with longer, heavier, more expensive weapons.

The one where the soldier bitchslapped the woman who presented him one is my favorite but that pipe cleaner's a good one.

A lot of their tactics, whether debate or social assassination, relies on the consent of other people and their opponent. Like, trying to use victimhood as a position of strength or misrepresenting something. It's strange on the outset, but it's meant to give them as much protection and benefit of the doubt in case someone calls them out on it.

Light maybe, fragile no. The britbongs made plenty use of them in Afghanistan in 01. To good effect too. Really it's just the army thinks it's grunts are idiots and doesn't want to spend time training them

Bayonets are probably too "low-tech" for the current brass to care about or want to teach. Never mind that like you said the Brits were able to use it very effectively against the Taliban, because no matter the culture or continent you come from nothing will instill instant fear like the prospect of getting violently stabbed by something sharp and pointy.

That's basically the feeling, and kinda why the Marines went "fuck that shit, we keeping ours, because we actually fight to win". Fear is as much a weapon as the knife itself people forget

M16s may be rattling pieces of shit but you can still abuse the fuck out of them because they were made to be abused. I don't know where you get this fragile nonsense from. These rifles, unlike your civ owned PSA, has to be made to take a pounding, get knocked on shit, get stuck on things, etc. There's a reason we've been using them continuously for 60 years.
 
What the fuck do we need 3000 more troops for when we aren't fighting?
Joey probably wanted to flex on Putin like the senile and impotent wannabe tough guy he is - and then got informed that our ongoing recruitment shortfalls and low retention rates meant we didn't have enough men to actually flex like he wanted to.

Some of the early Bakelite foregrips liked to shatter when hit, especially in bayonet training. They're the easiest thing to cheap out on and still have a working rifle, after all.
