Army to place large metal plates on DC streets to protect them from tanks during June parade
Army to place large metal plates on DC streets to protect them from tanks during June parade
It’s gonna be really really funny when it fucks up the streets
This happened in my town where the put load dispersing plates down while installing prefab concrete walls for a parking garage. The road surface was undamaged, but the weight crushed the storm and water pipes under the road that later caused the road to collapse lol
50 helicopters
might as well add 2 or 3 planes
me remembering all the downed Chinooks when I was in Iraq
Has the US military got any experience with synchronised performance marching? I have a feeling it's gonna be amateur dogshit compared to China's parades.
You do it in boot camp and then never again, unless you're in the band or the drill team I guess. These guys are probably gonna be practicing for a few weeks before the real thing, though that doesn't mean it will look great because I'm sure there are a bunch of problems that they'll run into on the day of that they haven't thought of yet.
A few weeks absolutely isn't enough to match the Chinese performance they put on at Victory Day. Gonna make some comparisons afterwards lol it's gonna look shambolic side by side.

Isn't DC a swamp? Whats the temp and humidity expected to be out there during the parade?
Better start taking bets on how many soldiers fall out to heat.
Would be just
if some of those tanks broke down during the parade though.Sorry I don't quite understand, can't imagine what? That the soldiers in the parade want to do it? Yeah then you'd probably be right, that makes it even worse because they're not gonna be invested in making their performance good either.
That alone says a lot about the modern state of america tbh. That the troops themselves would half-ass everything because they just don't care and don't want to be doing it.
The scrapper in me is salivating at the idea of cutting some of that out with a torch and using the fascist parade steel to build something cool
be a lot cooler if DC had to protect itself from Chinese tanks
there will be two helicopter crashes and when a tank gets hung up on something, in standard military fashion, someone in the parade, hopped up on diesel fumes will shout "gun gun gun!" and panic fire into the crowd gathering nearby. the event will be spun as antifa terror attack which was successfully repelled.
even though the real culprit will actually have been incompetence at every level.
video footage and audio recordings showing unequivocal evidence of this will be declassified during the truth and reconciliation council acts of 2053.
Jokes on you, they make us take out anything that could make a bullet do its job before we go out and do parade stuff around VIP's.
hilarious! and probably wise, as I can picture a tank crew or even just a gunner-involved kinetic event... but also maybe a weird vulnerability?
I'm sure the visible oinkers, the secret police, and the rooftop guys will all be armed which is another amusing distinction in the character boundry between troops and cops.
whenever I come across a policy or protocol I didn't expect, I think about the situation that caused somebody to go "well, that cannot happen again" and this one makes me laugh.
Soften ye ground sex deungeon tunnels of old.

Calling it now this will 100% make any audio of the event unusable and still fuck up the roads.
Hell yeah, destroy DC
Yesssss
I think 25 Abrams in Unison would make the audio unuseable anyways but yeah the roads are just gonna be fucked.
Critical support to Lord Commander Comrade Donny Deals for his mission to covertly destroy the US capitol at any rate.
Just the sound a single turbine engine makes is enough to make audio unusable.
