A Naval Skipper trash-talking terrorists on social media while also thwarting an attack that didn’t even interrupt Taco Tuesday is one of the best things we’ve seen on X/Twiitter in a while.
Immutable fact — nobody messes with Taco Tuesday. pic.twitter.com/LU3Xh7q3yO

The responses from you guys and gals made it that much better.
If this is the new way we report military action on Tuesday I’m here for it and I’ve waited for it my whole life.

So say we all.
Enjoy Shipmates! 🌮🫡
For Marines, every Taco Tuesday is a mission to ‘con-queso’ the world! Alright that was cheesy! 🥁

But cheese makes everything better! Semper Fi, Marine.

No one gets between The Navy and their tacos.
Tacos are essential to the discipline of a ship upon the high seas; where sailors, petty officers and officers alike are equal in their appetite for the chosen food of Neptune and Poseidon

It’s not often talked about, but during World War II, the starving Japanese troops were demoralized by learning about ships in the U.S. fleets that only served as ice cream tenders for meal times.
This Skipper seems to be implementing a similar strategy using social media and X/Twitter absolutely loves it.
