The headline says it all. This info comes from a well-placed friend in Texas. He says the news is being overwhelmed by the story about a football being below regulation pressure in an important game. Typical.
Jade Helm is such an unusual name. What do you think of when you hear the word jade? You think of China, right? Helm is self-explanatory

TBH Jade Helm sounds like a piece of armor from Elder Scrolls Skyrim.
Military exercises take many forms, and guys in the naming department sometimes have a sense of humor (shocking for gov't workers, but many of them are human beings with real feelings).

I was in the military for a while so have some experience with this. Yes, they do have a sense of humor, and sometimes it's a sick sense of humor. Thanks for the link.

My friend who was active, told me about a test that asked if you were ordered to would you shoot a US citizen. Is this true or is my friend a liar?

Since 1985 all USA police, and USA COPS are required to say "I WILL KILL USA CITIZENS, if ORDERED", if you say NO, you don't get the job;

This is just plain false. My father is the head of the police academy in a medium sized city.

I know your father and he dis-owned you on birth.

My dick is bigger than your fathers dick, and what does this have to do with a medium size city in the wasteland?
