Harry Morgan has died. He was 96.
I know that a lot of people have posted this clip of Col. Potter expressing outrage over the varied ways men kill one another. But I'm fond of this clip:
A blog by a "sucker" and a "loser" who served her country in the Navy.
If you're one of the Covidiots who believe that COVID-19 is "just the flu",
that the 2020 election was stolen, or
especially if you supported the 1/6/21 insurrection,
leave now.
Slava Ukraini!

COMMENT MODERATION IS IN EFFECT UFN. This means that if you are an insulting dick, nobody will ever see it.
My father was a doctor in an evacuation hospital in WWII. My brother and I took him to see them movie and he came out, shaking his head saying, "That's just the way it was, only crazier".
ReplyDeleteThe unit was composed of faculty and recent graduates of Yale Med and Nursing. The people were smart self-starters who didn't have to be told what to do, and for the first 6 months they didn't have a real C.O.
But the wheels of headquarters finally brought forth a Regular Army (and redneck) C.O.
Who decided he'd bust the chops of these whipper-snappers...and so had them up every morning at 6AM for calisthenics (and they'd been up the night before in surgery).
So everyone lined up and did finger push-up and made grunting noises. Finally one morning, the C.O. actually got up and discovered this, and there was all Hell to pay....for about 3 months, when he developed prostate trouble.
Which meant a finger wave every day or so, which so mortified him that he hid in his tent for the rest of the war.......and the unit ran itself very well, thank you.
Or so my father told me, who faithfully watch the TV seris as well.
