Success is not final. Failure is not fatal: It is the courage to continue that counts." - Winston Churchill. #dailydufour #charliemike #continuemission https://www.instagram.com/p/CF3L8Z2pCoBHjnoT-sxi6wvY9FFus7yrIn7YbA0/?igshid=1tckr7xfnuoap
Quick lesson on tourniquets. If you apply them properly, they fucking hurt. Get that motherfucker as tight as possible BEFORE you twist the wind last, then twist. You should get no more than 3 rotations. High and tight by the shoulder on the point of wounding (the X), especially if there still are enemies near by. THERE IS NO BETTER MEDICINE THAN RETURNING FIRE! Do not make yourself a fucking casualty trying to superman that shit. You'll just die then your team is really fucked. Once you are in a relatively safe location you can convert it to a deliberate. Go 2-3 inches above the wound and not on a joint. Don't do this until Circulation in your MARCH or HABC algorithm! Remember to loosen that hasty high and tight so your buddy doesn't get compartment syndrome. That shit can and will fucking kill him. Above is a picture of my arm from earlier today. Bruised like a motherfucker from a PROPPER tourniquet.

So I saw zero mention of this when it first broke, but @enrique262 may have some good thoughts on it. I find it laughable at best. The story goes that not long ago, Venezuelan dictator Maduro produced this…trainwreck to try and scare off the US Marine Corps in case the American war machine set its sights on Venezuela. Enjoy.

I still find it hilarious that in the Polish-Soviet war, the Poles jammed Soviet radios by jumping on to the frequencies the Soviets used and reading the New Testament as loudly as possible from several different places.
Polish Catholics are just always Like That no matter the era, it seems
Police in New Zealand happened to be holding a drill in the city center when the shooting began, just miles from where the massacre unfolded.
It took police officers in New Zealand 36 minutes to catch the terrorist who murdered 50 people in two Christchurch mosques last week. Dramatic footage shows that just two officers—only one of whom had a gun—apprehend the suspect after his bloody rampage. We are now learning that this response time would have been longer, but police happened to be conducting a drill nearby practicing for a similar attack.
In what can be described as an extremely strange “coincidence,” Chris Cahill, a detective inspector who is president of a local labor union for police officers, explained that officers were involved in a drill near the city center when the shooting broke out.
According to the NY Times,
The police said a special armed tactical unit arrived at Al Noor Mosque four minutes after the first officers, or 10 minutes after the initial emergency call.
Mr. Cahill said it normally would have taken longer, with team members summoned to a police station to suit up. On Friday, though, they happened to be in a training session in the city center and wearing their gear, he said.
“Any police force in the world — to get to the scene in six minutes, a specialist team there in 10 — that would be a success,” Mr. Cahill said.
Police in New Zealand don’t typically carry firearms, much less dress in tactical gear, so officers holding a drill with all their tactical equipment and weapons at the ready was a helpful coincidence indeed.
For those who may be unaware, the significance of the drill is important due to the fact that most terror attacks in recent history have coincided with drills very similar to the actual terrorism that unfolds.
In November of 2015, during the tragic attacks on Paris, it was later reported that Paris-area emergency personnel and ambulance crews were taking part in a simulated emergency exercise on the very same day. The exact nature of the drill was a simulated mass shooting attack, according to Dr. Mathieu Raux, emergency room chief at the Pitié-Salpetrière hospital in Paris.
Also, during the 9/11 attacks on the U.S., North American Aerospace Defense Command’s (NORAD) was in the midst of a training exercise called Vigilant Guardian, which “coincidentally” simulated planes being hijacked by terrorists.
A story in Aviation Week made clear the connection between the 9/11 attacks and the NORAD drills taking place at virtually the same moment:
At 8:40 a.m. EDT, Tech. Sgt. Jeremy W. Powell of North American Aerospace Defense Command’s (Norad) Northeast Air Defense Sector (NEADS) in Rome, N.Y., took the first call from Boston Center. He notified NEADS commander Col. Robert K. Marr, Jr., of a possible hijacked airliner, American Airlines Flight 11.
“Part of the exercise?” the colonel wondered. No; this is a real-world event, he was told. Several days into a semiannual exercise known as Vigilant Guardian, NEADS was fully staffed, its key officers and enlisted supervisors already manning the operations center “battle cab.”
In retrospect, the exercise would prove to be a serendipitous enabler of a rapid military response to terrorist attacks on Sept. 11. Senior officers involved in Vigilant Guardian were manning Norad command centers throughout the U.S. and Canada, available to make immediate decisions.
As if these two events weren’t a strange enough “coincidence,” the London subway attacks on 7/7 also encompassed drills happening only days prior to that terrorist attack.
That really activates my almonds
