Man the air force is cooking lately.
The Air Force is the military branch with minimum requirements for mental capabilities, even if not officially. Pilots and aircraft mechanics are not front line fodder. And until the Space Force came along, they handled most of the stuff related to managing space as well.
The Army and Marines will basically take anyone breathing. And the Navy is a bit of a mix, just gotta be a little bit gay since you're gonna be stuck on a boat for months at a time with a bunch of seamen.
Is it really surprising that it's the Air Force that would have the servicemen that can read, comprehend, and act against all this obvious bullshit?
