I know that we have all been talking about the following story about Army Putting Ex-Soldiers Into Uniform here one of the numerous links: http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,124278,00.html

but now check out the pics with the story:

There are many comments that I could make but I believe I will let my esteemed brethern start the show.

I honestly don't know where to start. So many things jumped out at me all at once, it's like it overloaded my CPU and caused a fatal error.

They look like they are standing in line for an Arnold movie, or something.

I know many of you will accuse me of doctoring this photo but I assure you I pulled it straight from foxnews.com check out the link I included.

CD you are right in that so much jumps out at you. My personal favorite is the #3 man with that stupid looking expression on his face. Everytime I look at the pic I can't help but laugh.

I guess I am missing it......for legs they don't look as bad as most.

Legs always look dumb, it's just a matter of how much!

#3's a killer ain't he!? HE, HE, HE.

I like the grip technique of the #2 man. Notice the extended index finger on his forward grip. Oh, and I just love the combat snarl he is sporting from underneath those faggotty assed shades he's wearing. He looks like he is perculating a good shit.

My guess is that his weapon is on safe (they all appear to have A1's), and being a lefty, he can't engage the selector lever otherwise.

All I have to say to that pic is... 3 more years left in the IRR and the sweating will stop. If only I could go back to 2/75 if I were to be reactivated :(

What is that technique called; the 'LowHipfireReady'? I'd be willing to bet he runs around with his weapon on 'auto' the whole time....in case he needs to "rock and roll"!!

You KNOW the camera guy said,"Look mean" and that's what they came up with....one dude haulin' ass, two 'stunned mullets', and a CPT with his eyes shut! I'm fucking dying over here...

Fuck, I just realized those aren't M16A1's, they're rubber ducks!

Is this some underfunded ROTC detachment posing for the pics?
