Holy shit they get sleep??

We didn't get that when I was in the ranks.

Kidding aside, I'm pretty sure many of them don't mind that much.

I agree. Perhaps Trump should have insisted that they bivouaced on the WH grounds, and even inside the White House. Think about the statement that would make. to the world.

Trump brings in NG to protect D.C. from burning, the D.C. mayor tries to expel them so her people CAN burn down D.C., Trump shelters those who are there to save America and our shared heritage, including all the monuments, historic churches, etc.

You would be amazed at how used to it we are at this point. People in the middle east like us more than those in any large coastal US city. I have been yelled at and called a murderer for stopping to get gas on my way to work in uniform here. In other countries, they knew we were US military even out of uniform, and everyone went out of their way to welcome us.

I understand your concern but trust me as a long time infantry sergeant and later officer, when you are tired you don't want to wait to sleep and if you're in a tactical environment you don't want to be crammed in a hotel, these soldiers are safe and dry life is good

No one thinks the mayor did the right thing. The people here are just being nostalgic. It’s not about you. Be calm. Be calm. We are all friends.

I understand what you're getting at and I agree with you. I'm not upset that they're sleeping outside. They're soldiers and will be fine. What upsets me about the picture is the reason they're sleeping outside. The damned mayor kicked them out of their hotel rooms.

Go sign up. That's when you'll understand.

Stop whining. So long as they aren't taking fire, they are fine and happy.
