Flash.

This is coolbert:

Jumping Jack Flash, it's a gas, gas, gas.

OH MY! It hurts to see this. Troops of the Afghan National Army [no longer exists] as were being given basic physical training by American soldiers. I even hesitate to make this post.


"A jumping jack, also known as a star jump and called a side-straddle hop in the US military, is a physical jumping exercise performed by jumping to a position with the legs spread wide and the hands going overhead, sometimes in a clap, and then returning to a position with the feet together and the arms at the sides."

AS LEAST THE AMERICAN INSTRUCTORS COULD HAVE DONE WAS TO LEARN TO COUNT IN PUSHTUN OR DARI OR WHATEVER LOCAL LANGUAGE WAS APPROPRIATE. GROWN MEN [AFGHAN] WITH SUCH A TOTAL LACK OF PHYSICAL COORDINATION HARDLY GOOD MATERIAL TO BUILD A RELIABLE, CREDIBLE AND EFFECTIVE FIGHTING FORCE. 

Rather apparent now, isn't it??
