Noooooooo, it's a flash back. Back to a time and place where one could boil water in issued head gear, entrenching tools had wooden handles, you could wear a P-38 on your dog tag chain without having someone go apoplectic, friction tape was used both on hockey sticks and to subdue noise on web gear connectors, back when there was a mess hall, when the morning report was the most critical piece of paper produced in a company sized unit, when kiwi was a barracks survival necessity and not a fruit, when footlockers displayed items no one ever used but everyone had to have all the time in the proper position, briefings were given by using a stick and scratching out the game plan in the dirt or using ponchos and chalk which did not require batteries and graphics skills on a laptop, when power point was the index finger of the 1SG when he singled out folks for extra duty, and when yes, there was a Davey Crocket and no it could not fit in the wall locker because it was not part of the authorized wall locker display.
