I think it's funny how all of these memes use the 'nam footage, because that's what the old vets came back from when we were growing up, but nowadays we're quickly approaching the point it'd almost be more pertinent to use Desert Shield/Storm or Fallujah.

I know time just kinda moves but damn it's weird to think about.

I know it's not even close to the same thing, but every time someone mentions Fallujah, I instantly want fajitas.

Mmmmmm Fajitas 🤤

I mean they’re close enough, and fajitas are definitely great. I can’t blame you for making that connection.
