In an interesting twist to the news today, both the UK military, the US military, the Russian military and the Ukrainian military have shown themselves to be totally useless!
The UK have had RAF personnel files stolen from a high security base in Gloucestershire! Personnel records stolen from MoD In the current climate, this is actually worse than leaving them on a disc in the back of a taxi!

Ukrainian Ships
Somali Pirate Ship
So what exactly do they do with all the money that’s given to them to "protect" us?
