Utah National Guard "Scandal"

Apparently the legislature of Utah has nothing better to do than Charlie Bravo barrel-chested freedom fighters in their quest to foster international relations and enhance cultural awareness.

http://fox13now.com/2014/10/16/risqu...ational-guard/

I think the only reason the spokesperson was mad was because he wasn't invited. So the AAR for this should be that a much more detailed CONOP needs be given to the TAG, to include pictures/videos/and a KLE.

Punishment should be that all offenders be lined up and have their hands lightly slapped once and an admonishment to never ever forget to invite the TAG.

One interesting note, the credit section of the video used by the news and the credit section from the most recent upload to YouTube (I scrutinized it thoroughly and repeatedly, you're welcome) differ slightly.

This is bullshit, but it is probably a violation of the regs.

The girls and the video seem pretty harmless to me, but there is a Fun Policeman around every corner these days.

The military is scared shitless of sexual assault complaints, so anything, including Muscle and Fitness magazine or a newspaper with a bra ad is verboten and must be reported. Then off to the re-education and self-criticism camp for another indoctrination session.

As far as the Army is concerned, a guy who wants to see female skin is probably a rapist.

I guess the Taliban is now in charge of the DoD.

Nevertheless, using government property for a commercial photo shoot requires approval.

Yup on permission...silly stuff.
There was that Chica Sp4 that did a Hustler photo shoot on Bragg, used a Hummer with the vehicle numbers in the shot....did a titty shot partially out of uniform by the Ft. Bragg sign on Yadkin Rd corner...I think about 96.

I noticed one model clearly wearing a seat belt, but I also noticed she was NOT wearing a reflective belt.

I think the Sergeant Major should give her a good spanking ...
that's it,
give them all a good spanking ...
and then the [well, Monty Python fans can fill in the rest of the quote].

"Video of buxom models riding around in tanks and firing guns..."

As a taxpayer...I got all worked up just reading this...

I'll be in my bunk checking that video - repeatedly - for more violations.

LMAO! I was on the phone yesterday listening to a guy at 19th SFG(A) HQ in UT lament that the TX Bn was "out of control". If this is an example of "in control" I can't wait to see what happens when the TX Bn makes the news! They might even surpass the SS scandal.

As I entered this thread, I was thinking it would be a good laugh.

I started watching the video, and as soon as it said 19th, I laughed so loud that 2 staff members came to see what the ruckus was.

Classic...

1)T O & E, The 19th has arty??
2)@1:31, Big Shot Ranch sign?,link
3)@1:41, New LOONG Tab, "Police"???
4)@2:18, Cellulite on the Snow Bunnies??
5)water gun fight, Big Shot Ranch, I am still reviewing..
6)@3:56, Keys on Main bar,link, 1st SFG must be involved?

Personally, I think this is all PR for the new Hot Shots calendar..

I don't recall any 155's in inventory...It was always a curiosity that they brought our parachutes out to Buckley/ Strassburg in a Ryder truck from Utah, but then again I don't recall any riggers either. We always chuckled, having all the equipment in Utah seemed important ...but that was a long time ago.

Goose bumps or cellulite, that is an important difference, definitely require more recon.

What the hell? I don't think it's sending any kind of archaic message! Seriously, why do people always have to try to tie in some darkening politically correct message with this kind of stuff!? Only message I got from this is UK models enjoy shooting weapons, are comfortable with their bodies exposed, and like to go out on the town.

The funny thing is if a female is a model her true value (financially) are her body parts.
