From a memo sent to soldiers of the Army’s 43rd Adjutant Battalion based at Fort Leonard Wood in Missouri, linked by the Army Times: “The usage of profanity, vulgar language, rude gestures or remarks are strictly prohibited while operating in official capacities during duty hours. Such language does not align with the Army’s core values and undermines the integrity of our Soldiers and our formations therefore will not be tolerated in the 43rd Reception Battalion. Restrictions: Vulgar or disparaging language will not be utilized during meetings, briefings, training exercises, while addressing superiors, peers, or trainees. Vulgar or offensive language will not be displayed on any piece of clothing or personal effects at any time within the Battalion footprint.”
That’s kind of woke, isn’t it? Taking the fun out of being in the military would qualify, right? Someone pass this along to Secretary Petey Pee Pants whenever he’s done sleeping off his breakfast gin.
