"Be all you can be", or if it walks, talks, and smells like a Tech-Bro insider situation - well, you know.

US Army creates new "special" Detachment 201: the Executive Innovation Corps "to recruit senior tech executives to serve part-time in the Army Reserve as senior advisors." The new "recruits" magically get the rank of Army Reserve Lt. Colonel. Read Army PR here: https://www.army.mil/article-amp/286317/army_launches_detachment_201_executive_innovation_corps_to_drive_tech_transformation

Apparently this is a case of Tech insiders inviting Tech insiders - "I want to wear the uniform. And I have three other guys willing to go with me.’” .... What will these new soldiers actually do? Not clear, but critics suggest this is just rich tech bros cosplaying the real thing.

The #gunman, #RobertCard, was a #grenade instructor in the #ArmyReserve. In 2023, after 8 yrs of being exposed to thousands of skull-shaking blasts on the training range, he began hearing #voices & was stalked by #paranoid #delusions. He grew increasingly erratic & #violent in the months before the Oct rampage in #Lewiston, in which he killed 18 people & then himself.
