Seen in the Base Clinic

While scheduling appointments this morning, I noticed someone at hung a sign with this on it:

"All wars are wars among thieves who are too cowardly to fight and who therefore induce the young manhood to do the fighting for them."

--Emma Goldman

(Who is Emma Goldman? She was an anarchist, amongst other bright spots on her resume.

Anyway, such a wonderful thing to see in our clinic. I hope I have some free time coming up to point it out.

I'm sure those in charge would like it removed before those in charge of them notice it and choose to remind them of the UCMJ implications of such statements which could easily be interpreted as implying that the Commander-in-Chief is a thief and coward.

Just started the day on such a bright note.

All wars are fought by young people because they can march for hours in the heat and cold with 100 pounds of stuff and not die...like us old guys would. :-)
