but this venture of boredom is costing $200,000,000.... 2 hundred million.... a shameful waste of money that the military could have used elsewhere....?Anyone who has ever served in the military knows that boredom is part of a soldiers daily routine. ....
I have no idea how you came up with that 200 million dollar figure? ...
Costs are mounting for Trump’s use of the military at the borderI have no idea how you came up with that 200 million dollar figure? ...
But you can't factor in what we pay the soldiers, because they are going to be on the payroll regardless of their mission.
Plus, I would rather have our soldiers defending our border. Them to have them deployed overseas defending some other country's border.
Happy Thanksgiving ...
The liberal media is being dishonest.
you don't even know how to translate ''YOU are the dumbshit'' in Spanish
It's buying a happy base. Priorities.
...I can see how you would be crying about sleeping in a hot tent eating MREs because you were NOT a grunt
very dumbass post---very immature
Here goes this site again! I’m becoming positive it’s a Leftist front out to belittle our president anyway they can.
Troops bored? Good Lord! They obviously don’t know the most basic rule of being in the military. Hurry up and wait? It’s why we learned to pass our time anyway possible, to include getting lots and lots of sleep. And, any NCO worth his or her salt would be finding all sorts of ways of giving them make-work tasks.
The Times likened the atmosphere to the early years in Afghanistan. Rep. Anthony G. Brown, a Maryland Democrat and Iraq War veteran, said a key difference is that in Afghanistan the soldiers have a mission.
Brown said that even on holidays, that mission, a sense of purpose, helped troops maintain morale. Along the border, it seems, that purpose is missing.
While some of the troops spend their days constructing barbed-wire fences, others are just trying to make their bases livable, according to The Times. Many are performing the same tasks as previously deployed National Guard units.
“When you send a soldier on a dubious mission, with no military value, over Thanksgiving, it doesn’t help morale at all,” Brown told The Times.
Of course they cite the NYT and find a Dim Rep for the commentary.
More of this trash @ Troops Assigned To The US Border Mission Are Bored As Hell

Sending them all to Gitmo would be better.
