Good story dot

[@EricMcConnaughey]

Good one. As a geek, I would've shown someone the ST:TOS episode "A Taste of Armageddon", where the two planets fight a war with computers. Kirk's big line, " We accept we're killers, but we're not going to kill, today."

A great general will win a battle with minimal loss of life but the greatest generals will prevent the battle and so prevent the loss of life - Sun Tzu.

Love that uniform! Two rockers on the left, three on the right, badges all over the place.

[@fordvg]

Good story, but officer’s wear their insignia on their shoulders not on their arms. They keep saying she is a Marine Captain, but they have her with E-8 Master Sergeant rank on her arms.

Depends on the military. Don’t think so hard

[@boffo63]

It's the future. Things change. lol What was with the glasses? Surely we've fixed eye sight by then.

[@morrisvanderslice1735]

But the Marines are subservient to their naval masters, perhaps in the future their military has evolved their uniforms to a single consistent style.

That Chen sure gets around.

The duality of man

[@1029JONNYBOY]

good story but if you were telling this story today, somewhere local, to someone local. you would be describing Americans. Not Humans. Sorry to say I don't believe that my fellow humans would show that much restraint.

[@paulc8799]

Americans would have blown the place sky high.

[@dusanradin5868]

Yanks and restraint? Is that a joke? Yanks are more like Nazis,from the start.

[@ChrisinOSMS]

Canadians.

True considering all the weapons the United States is providing to Israel. The US is complicit in the Palestinian genocide.
