        You mean this reddit post, from 7 days ago? The Onion article is from April 2015.https://www.reddit.com/r/Military/comments/7txsjn/ …

        great catch, but lets be entirely fair here: it is certainly not unreasonable for me to have assumed that a new post by their twitter account meant that it was a new article

        This sounds too much like me. Except there would be more crayon drawn in to mitigate risks so as to try not to stifle innovation. 😔😶🤓
