Today I learned that the U.S. Army uses metric system.

The only thing they measure in kilograms is cocaine

@Demolishun 9mm? more like half of trump's manhood length

@Demolishun there is an amazing Micropenis Trump painting that Trump wanted to sue the paintress over. If the case is defamation, then the defaming thing must be false, sooooo… you'll have to “prove” that in court. And court hearings are public.

@Demolishun

So, guns and cocaine. Got it.

Imagine that an US unit is searching some Baghdad basement in the height of the second Saddam war. They have a finding, and report 50.000 9mm rounds as freaking old-timey 9 inch naval ordinance - just because they see the 9 and the 9 inch ordinance is the first in the reporting system results.
They have about a second to report it before they have to move, it's understandable that the first result in the system might get clicked.
Then...
The coalition force might have to reallocate an entire bloody carrier battle group. A fucking billion dollars evaporate just because someone reported the wrong size of ammo.
No fucking way the US armed forces will use an entire fucking measurement system different from their coalition forces.

@JsonBoa 1957: The U.S. Army and Marine Corps adopted the metric system. Used as the basis for their weapons and equipment.

@kiki crap, it was in the fifties? I thought they would have standardized by the bloody WWII
