Fort Polk on Standby

 According to out local TV station, our local Army post, Fort Polk is on standby for the Ukraine.

Ain't much at Fort Polk, unlike during the Cold War when it was a divisional post.  Nowadays it hosts the Joint Readiness Training Center and has several resident units, three infantry battalions, one Field Artillery battalion, and one squadron of Cavalry.  Oh, and an Engineer battalion.

It's mainly a training post, and I don't know which units have gotten the warning order.

No one called to ask me what I thought about this Ukraine foolishness.  It seems that Biden wants to distract us fro the problems we face here at hoe, and I can only pray that a Ukraine adventure doesn't end like his Afghan withdrawal.

  5. I saw a good meme this morning. "If we're unwilling to defend our own border, why should we care about Ukraine's?"
