Iranian missiles have already destroyed significant capacity for the US military's paper thin logistics network in the middle east, leading to severe food and sanitation shortages throughout the Navy. Sailors are losing their minds, posting borderline mutinous language on social media, and self harming. Some have lost 20-30 lbs due to their meagre diet.

    it's pretty rough at like 4x size just eyeballing it with browser zoom. i think with the monkeys we could pick a frame and have monkey-knife-1 and monkey-knife-2 but it loses something without the boys cheering it on.
