Top US general visits training site for Ukrainian soldiers

“This is not a run of the mill rotation,” U.S. Army Gen. Mark Milley, chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, said Monday afternoon as he met with commanders. “This is one of those moments in time where if you want to make a difference, this is it.”

Milley, who visited the sprawling Grafenwoehr training area to get his first look at the new, so-called combined arms instruction, has said it will better prepare Ukrainian troops to launch an offensive or counter any surge in Russian attacks.

Last month, the Pentagon announced it would expand the training in an effort to hone the skills of the Ukrainian forces. The five-week course will teach them to effectively move and coordinate their company- and battalion-size units in battle, using combined artillery, armor and ground forces.

1. Seeing pics of the SlobFather at lunchtime makes me lose my appetite. New diet craze perhaps??

2. I spent many

months training in Grafenwoehr. Essentially one of the only places you can practice live tank gunnery in Germany. At least it was during the time of divided Germany.

A very serious training area.

4. and cold as hell in winter

I am glad to see the army is putting it to good use.

3. Seeing the General Walking Around with clothes that match others, is wonderful.

No general suits or whatever. He looks like the others. (my opinion only)

It is the first picture, above the "slobfather" in the original post!

9. It's called a uniform, and Generals wear fatigues, too...

5. I believe U.S. Army Gen. Mark Milley told trump NO.

The US military will not support Marshal law.
Milley is the reason trump stood down. IMO

6. Yes, you are correct. He then gave VERY clear orders to all enlisted personnel about illegal

Orders that do not protect American citizens.

7. I wish he would get more credit.

He saved our democracy.
That said I bet he does not want more credit.

8. The Military and the Judicial branch of govt. saved democracy.

The courts basically told Benedict Donald to go fuck himself.

11. I believe on 1/6 trump's goal was Martial law.

Trump wanted the military to support him using Martial law.
General Mark A. Milley said NO.

The courts were involved. Trump had 30 some useless lawsuits. They were going no where.
This is just how I see/read it.

[MarineCombatEngineer]

12. I believe you're correct.

M. Flynn, I refuse to call him a General because he's a traitor, was strongly urging Benedict to declare Martial Law, but, as you said, General Milley gave him a resounding NO.

10. Nailed it!

13. I, for one, like him

He's more than earned my respect. Even when he fucked up that one time with the Trump military anti-protest photo op, Miley totally owned it in a very public way. He issued a gold standard sincere apology, none of that "for anyone who was offended..." crap. And yes, he subsequently stood very firm for democracy.
