I think I need an insuline shot

Liked the part when you can hear Anchors aweigh in the music, and the images

And what's this trend of America's navy and America's army, what happened to the US army and US navy

America's Navy - A Global Force for Domination

As for the Air Force and Army...

On the topic of Navy recruiting ads, I got to meet one of the guys who showed up at the end of one of the first 'Global Force for Good' ads, Rear Admiral Arthur Johnson. I guess he was one of my dad's first COs, and when he came down to look over the naval air station we got together and had dinner. Just something I thought of while reading this

I just saw a AF recruiting commercial spouting "America's Air Force" to go along with that list.

My theory is, its softer sounding. It sounds military, yet less military at the same time. Kinda like a euphemism. Ultimate idea being to make it sound more attractive to get more recruits.

"Global force for good" ???

I suppose now hegemony is now equated to good. Good for who.

Is the military turning into a game of D&D? Lawful Good, Neutral Good, Chaotic Good

Mr. Recruiter, I would like to join up but I am more Chaotic Neutral, which unit could I join?

Uh son, that would be the Druids and their office is down the hall.

I suppose they good have done worse than "Global Force for Good". Not much worse mind, you. Sailors have enough to worry about without a slogan that could easily be used to poke fun at their waistlines.

I like that Army motifake, though. That's be a great recruiting poster. If you cut out the second half of the caption, it's be an accurate one too.

A global force for good... as in Trade goods... as in the only thing the navy is good for is transporting cheap goods from China.
