It’s in grubby downtown office building. Such a joke. I was at an NPS alumni event in Austin a year or so ago and had to stifle a laugh when a guy explained he was a professor at the “university” of Austin while others nodded along like he was serious. Event also featured ex SEALS pitching AI so….

He was the weird little E-4 nobody wanted to pull staff duty with. Endless “I could have been an officer” energy.

OMG. I understand this reference. Those people are sooooo weird. I’ve been on that campus a long time ago for an exercise. It gave me the icks so bad I adapted the generalized creepiness of the place into on of my (yet unpublished) novels.

And Navy Captain is the equivalent of an Army Colonel, both ranks are incredibly hard to achieve. Hegseth was, at his highest rank a Major and not even a fully qualified one at that. A JV scrub who thought he deserved a starting spot on the varsity

My time to shine! A lot of the old ones are not calibrated correctly but will still give you a read. Local Hazmat team will have them too, and Hazmat guys love talking about their toys. And as long as you don’t lick the radium you’ll probably be fine. Probably.
