GLORY & PROPAGANDA means war movies all month long and there isn’t very many war flicks about the first gulf war. “Three Kings” is one you might think of immediately. On the other hand it’s an interesting thing to capture the mundanity of a particular conflict and during that first gulf war in 1990, a lot of soldiers charged up without seeing quite as much action as they prepared for. I mean, shit got hot but folks were more like to be accidentally bombed by their own countrymen than getting it from an Iraqi in a hand-me-down Russian tank. Today we discuss the mundanity of militarism in this adaptation of Anthony Swofford’s Marine memoirs, the 2005 film “JARHEAD” directed by Sam Mendes and Starring Jake Gyllenhaal, Peter Sarsgaard and Jamie Foxx. A unique war film that was released during the actions of a war that you could say was the sequel to the war presented here. A sequel that was considerably more destructive and withstanding. What’s it like to get trained to be an elite killer and then get completely blue-balled out of killing? Makes you kinda feel like one of those trained killer whales at Sea World. I don’t blame whales for attacking us. We’ve had it too good. Will these boys finally “get some” or will the only people “getting some” be their wives and girlfriends back home getting railed by some Jody college boys? When you gotta be with the boys you might as well be gay. Put that sentence in a recruitment commercial.

EP-372 | The Future of Military Recruitment: Challenges and Changes (Part II)

This song comforts those whose loved ones died in United States active military service or as veterans:

I’ve answered the call to Paradise:			
With all the Saints dressed in white.
We march and sing, 
salute and serve
Jesus, who died and rose to win the fight.

I’ve enlisted in God’s Kingdom,
My earthly parade is done.
My new graduation ceremony
Leads to duty with God’s Son.

Chorus
The trumpet sounds for Paradise
The bugle calls us to duty.
The wars and battles are over now.
I live in a place, full of God’s beauty


Are you coming to God’s Reveille?
You’ll awaken to a new Day,
Where peace time lasts forever,
And true honor lights our way.

I hope to greet you at The Reveille,
I’ll ask God to guard your place.
One day you’ll share Glory with me
Loving God and the human race.

Chorus
The trumpet sounds for Paradise
The bugle calls us to duty.
The wars and battles are over now.
I live in a place, full of God’s beauty

(c) 2024 Dave Pipitone
