Morale collapsing?
Where did you get that from?
The behavior borders on mutiny, that's totally out of control.

Soldiers invoking their own politicians as the enemy is a complete breakdown of discipline.

The fact that they even thought that they could get away with that, speaks to how out of control it must be.

Lots of hits on his face so at least their marksmanship is up to standard.
If Comrade Corbyn wasn't so busy trying to soften Brexit today he'd have made a real fuss about this.

Oh, their shit is going to get fucked, don't worry about that.
There's going to be a full enquiry and those 4 guys are going to jankers before they're booted out.

Too dumb to have in the Paras anyway. Should be digging latrines in the Pioneer Corps.

I mean, I never even thought of doing something like that. I don't even know what part of the UCMJ would cover it, though I don't doubt it's covered and the penalty sucks big time. You just know in your bones how wrong that is.

When the Liberals disbanded the Airborne Regiment, some troopers shot their mouths off about shooting some politicians.

But that was in the process of a total morale collapse.

Why is a former Soviet aircraft carrier laying in a landlocked Chinese lagoon just of the Sutong Yangtze River Bridge?

The old WW2 aircraft carrier, USS Midway, with an assortment of planes is on display in San Diego harbor. At least in the summer, it’s a very busy attraction.
