US Air National Guard member fired over woman who took enlistment oath with dinosaur puppet
2018-04-20
[Indpendent] Three US Air National Guard members have been disciplined, and one of them fired, for an incident involving a children’s dinosaur puppet.

Master Sergeant Robin Brown, a senior non-commissioned officer (NCO) with the Air National Guard, was removed from her position at the Tennessee Joint Public Affairs Office after video circulated of her taking her enlistment oath with a tyrannosaurus rex puppet in hand.

In the video, an unnamed colonel administers the oath while holding back a smile. Ms Brown repeats each line of the oath back, moving the sock puppet’s mouth along as she speaks. It was not immediately clear why she chose to employ the puppet.

He was - lost his eagles, got busted to 05 and was invited to put in his retirement papers, immediately-like.

And this permissive dickhead should be shown the door as well.

#7  I remember clearly a Gunnery Sergeant at MCRD explaining that the USAF was a collection of gentlemen who share a common tailor. This is worse....

#4  OK, she was a senior NCO when this was filmed. It couldn't have been the oath taken at entry, so evidently they were doing a gag about people taking the oath.
So she lost her gig in the PA office; back to recruitment and training.

#2  I remember my oath as though it were yesterday. A serious moment with some serious words.

If these dingbats are not going to take what they do seriously, why should our adversaries?
