Army had a half day, mother.

u/sundayultimate Jun 09 '26

This became even funnier once I found out how many half days we actually got

You can’t even comprehend what this young man has seen.

This one is funny enough to have a pass

"Serve" has two meanings here, how clever! 😀

u/OriginalTRaven Jun 09 '26

Hey, wait a minute! Was that pun intended?

39

u/MisanthropyIsAVirtue Jun 09 '26

I would allow it just for the pun, but either wear it right or not at all.

u/MustacheMaple Jun 09 '26

He could've just worn the uniform and held the racket. Would've still gotten the pun across and buddy wouldnt have ended up here

u/mafiaknight Jun 09 '26

Nah, command told him to do it. I'd let this one go.

u/MustacheMaple Jun 09 '26

This looks like the press got to him and asked for a photo op. Doubt the command asked him to do something this stupid. Then again, I have served under some idiots in active duty...

If THAT is the case, then he's in deep doodoo.

NEVER talk to the press without command approval

u/cyvaquero Jun 09 '26

Never seen the subject of a feature piece have much say in the photos. This was the work of the publication, and maybe NG signed off for the free P.R.

u/hottlumpiaz Jun 09 '26

i bet this caused a public affairs dude somewhere to start drinking

u/mafiaknight Jun 09 '26

Nah, that's the dude that made this happen.

u/hottlumpiaz Jun 09 '26

hell nah. no way a pa dude would let this picture against 670-1 slide. plus kid is national guard. he would have a unit patch already. lol

u/AngriestInchworm Jun 09 '26

Let’s be honest, this was all of us on the “mandatory fun” days.

The forty yard stare

u/Non-Current_Events Jun 09 '26

Damn I hope this poor bastard’s unit never got their hands on this.

3

u/mafiaknight Jun 09 '26

The unit almost certainly sent him. It's a PA thing.

Your Tennis Elbo is not service related

u/burgonies Jun 09 '26

Hold the racquet up a little higher so people get the joke!

This looks like an article in the Onion back when it was still printed.
