    It doesn’t matter. The fact that previous administrations passed up opportunities to eliminate him is irrelevant.

    Maybe @Green Arrow could explain why he thought that was important?

    Update: 34 troops diagnosed with traumatic brain injury after Iran strike.

    Most have been returned to duty.

    It is only recently that the military has taken TBI seriously. I had many concussion over 25 years in the military, most related to airborne operations. Back then the medic would give you 800 mg Motrin pills and not even annotate it in your medical records.

    On extended operations, we used to live on that stuff. It was not unusual for our loadout to almost equal or even exceed our body weight. That takes a toll on the joints after a while. You end up Motrin like they were M&Ms.

    Right. My first field exercise at my first unit, 1/187th AIR, I was carrying 156 pounds. I weighed 135 back then. After a week in the field one of the other newbees to the unit (there were three of us) broke down and they split some of his gear between me and the 3rd new guy. I don't even know how much that was. But I sucked it up. Charlie Mike.
