So, I recently had this dream where I was handling a second Football. Most people know there is an Air Force officer who carries a briefcase with the nuclear packages a president might want to execute. They think it is the codes for launching an attack, but from what I understand it is really a set of options that goes to a room in the Pentagon where an officer of each branch stays for several hours a day 24/7 to execute the orders. I was carrying a second Football with tactical, non-nuclear strike options.
Apparently, this president (wasn’t one I recognized, so not Biden or Trump or Obama or GWB or Clinton or GHWB or Reagan or Carter or Ford or Nixon or Johnson or JFK or Ike or Truman or FDR) was randomly asking me questions about options for obscure countries. So, like, “What naval missile options to we have to respond to the punta in Thailand?” Which meant I had to recall of the top of my head where the fleet in the Indian ocean should be and estimate how long it would take a ship to get close enough and ready to launch a strike.
