Donald Trump orders new military operation

Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth said in a social media post Thursday that the U.S. military’s expanding anti-drug campaign in the Caribbean will now be known as “Operation Southern Spear.”

If he had named it "Southern Cross", the op could have had a really neat theme song...but then, Trump would probably try to cheat the Richard Rodgers estate out of the royalty.

Beneath the Southern Cross


Great series- Victory at Sea

And properly sonorous music for a pretentious Secretary of !!WAR!! to go to !!WAR!!

But the title….”Beneath the Southern Cross”???……… knock off the introductory preposition and definite article…… and you are left with the title of a REAL song!

Not so great as a theme song for going to war, though.

Too woke, I suppose.
