What is all this Jade Helm 15 stuff about?

[Denny]

We really need to meet for lunch one afternoon.



Unlikely; I don't use a smart phone and my "drink" is Sailor Jerry and Coke with a few limes.

I'm overseeing a scaffolding project in Highland Park tomorrow. Are you going to be anywhere close? I'm running to Abilene after that, so I'll be out for a while.

"But it all was bullshit.
It was a goddamn joke.
And when I think of you Jade Helm,
I hope you fucking choke."

Hitler built barbed wire fences around neighbor hoods and told the people it was for their safety, he then urged them onto trains to take them to a safe place, away from the "invading Russians" and they all listened and walked in to their death. Please read the book "how do you kill 11 million people" you may find it interesting. Short read should only take you an hour. I bought it for 67 cents off amazon.

Typically, all military operations are named. Can't tell you why that specific name was used.

Bullshit asshole, no one orders the Sailors Jerry.

I'm sure it's a coincidence that an Army General just took over command of SOCOM from a Navy Admiral. The first actual infantry officer at the "helm" since 2000. They've had a string of aviators and admirals running operations for a long time.

That and he's a member of the 75th Ranger Regiment and wears both an EIB and CIB. There are lots of colors there that could be considered "jade".

Traditional green, meaning Army.
