Very low paid airmen. Very low paid airmen who never get any special attention from on high. Then one day their CO is told “hey the brass wanna know how much is really in that warehouse”

Fuck. This is gonna take all day. Round up all the e5 and below and get it done.

A surprising discovery could also ease the administration’s choice to send the weapons: The U.S. has found it has more ATACMS in its inventory than originally assessed, the two officials told ABC News.

The serviceability of the rediscovered stockpile is not yet clear, nor which specific type of missiles it contains.

it’s just a launch vehicle if you remove the warhead
