Why are they sweeping a lawn? 🤣 Ngl, that reflects my time at a training command. They had us do a FOD walkdown to clear the grass of all dandelion flowers. We wasted so much manpower doing the dumbest stuff and I BEGGED them to let us do Habitat for Humanity or SOMETHING.

At least in the shipyard, I talked them into letting a few of us go work on the Wisconsin (battleship) (it's a museum)

Half of mine didn't have arms... from combat related injuries (fireworks)
