Somebody Give that Man a Medal

The US military is very, very good at many things, but cracking wise and maintaining perspective are generally not among them. All the more reason to commend Geoff Morell, Pentagon press secretary, for the most intelligent reaction I've seen so far to Russia's little parade:

If they wish to take out their old equipment and take it for a spin and check it out, they're more than welcome to do so.

Well played.
