Hilarious!!!
The part I like best: “The Army will be subsumed into the Marine Corps as the Land Marines,” the document reads. “Not everyone needs to specialize in amphibious assault. But by God, every one of them will be a rifleman. Also, incorporating former Army infantry units intact will allow us to meet congressional mandates for female combat troops.”
Don't flame me... I just think this is the best example of interservice teasing/ragging I've ever seen.

Sounds like their planning cycle is in progress and they are generating some very good ideas.

I literally laughed out loud.
"Hooah is to ‘oorah’ as ‘brigade combat team’ is to ‘air-ground task force."
Excellent!
