Free Range by Bill Whitehead for May 10, 2024

Military {lack of} “Intelligence”.

…and bring your Risk game.

The generals are restless today!!!

Generals just wanna have fun!

The first thing that came to my mind was this part of the Jefferson Airplane song, “Lather” — “and Sergeant Dow Jones, 27 years old, commanding his very own tank.”

Do the High Brass still use Sandtables ?

Do not bring the British Fleet and the Spanish Armada set,

We’re losing, big time, and we’re hoping an influx of troops and tanks (that we didn’t fund yet) will help.

Well… OK! But only if I get to press The Button.

If only all wars would be fought this way!

Get the top secret papers I left in garage by my ‘67 Corvette. Don’t tell anyone they’re secret.

Shouldn’t last line be “Roger that, Roger? And don’t call me Shirley!”

Daddy should never take work home with him.

I’ll bet it’s a very nice collection. Don’t forget the bombers.

And no fighting in the War Room!

Every wargamer I know will love this one. Thanks!

“Just tell Mommy to drive in my general direction.”

“Billy, want to play a game?”

Looks like they are losing the arms race.

Did someone sink his battleship?

So that’s where they went.
