Young recruits are receiving bayonet training somewhere in Germany in 1917. Rifle shaped sticks with piece of cloth on the front are used to prepare them for a close combat experiences with the enemy when invading a trench - or being invaded. Bayonets were still quite important during the first world war and the Germans had over 300 different models in use during the war.
"I swear you get dumber every day, Davao."
"Okay, first off, fuck you, Haines. Second, how the fuck did you know I'd be here? My damn plane just landed. Third, I don't think you're even allowed in this part of the terminal, so what the fuck are you doing?"
"I said no second thoughts. No mercy. Yet he's still alive and it's because of you."
"....fourth, how the fuck do you know that?"
"Now lookit you. Your stupidity turned you into the government's whipping boy."
"FUCKING. FIFTH."
"You'll need a team, alright. Clearly you're not good enough to get the job done."
".....y'know what, I'm done. Again, fuck you Haines."
"I'm going with you."
"Oh really?"
"Yeah, really. Like I said, clearly you can't get the job done. Someone's gotta be there to make sure you don't sit there with your head in your ass this time. I was the first person you should've gone to."
"Well, no offense Haines, but I'm not so sure an old fart who spends his Friday nights spying on college girls through hacked webcams would be a good addition to my team."
"Like I said, dumber every day. I'll see you in Wymarcie, with Slade and Mastiff and whoever the hell else you're bringing along. Probably the schoolgirl, too..."
'.....seventh!"

- Process orders, track delivery and promotion schedules.

Enough said of the job description. I simply need a passionate colleague who's mind is open and creative enough to work on concepts, technical enough to tackle all the basics of a retailer, analytical enough to translate data into actions, fun to work with and enjoy giving his/her best. The exposure will be overwhelming but that's part of the fun I get a lot from this company in the past 5 years. So I hope like attracts like, please spread this for me to your friends, send me a resume!

Meet two of Wigan’s newest recruits. James Booth and Stacey Whitehouse will become PCs next month.
The first recruits to join GMP in five years are finishing their training by visiting their new patches.
In a few weeks’ time 100 new officers will be attested at a ceremony in Salford before becoming fully operational officers within neighbourhood policing teams across Greater Manchester.
The new recruits are being officially introduced to the areas that they will be policing, getting to know the local area, meeting community groups and attending briefings to learn from officers who already work there.
The 100 are all former GMP employees having previously been either Police Community Support Officers (PCSO), Special Constables, apprentices or police staff.
Deputy Chief Constable Ian Pilling, said: “The introduction of these 100 new officers is part of our commitment to neighbourhood policing across Greater Manchester.
“Many of these recruits will be building upon their experience as former PCSOs or Special Constables and will therefore already have established the skills necessary to succeed in neighbourhood policing.
“The recruits join GMP as we make full use of the latest technology, including smartphones and tablets, which will allow frontline officers to spend more time out policing in the community.
“Through the ongoing recruitment we continue with our commitment to make sure that Greater Manchester Police is representative of the people and communities in which we serve.”
Greater Manchester Mayor and Police and Crime Commissioner Tony Lloyd said: “For the first time in five years we will see a significant number of new police officers patrolling our streets, which is good news for the communities of Greater Manchester.
“Local people have told me that they want a strong and sustainable police service keeping them and their homes safe. Despite ongoing government cuts to policing, I am determined to deliver that, working with the Chief Constable to drive forward new recruitment to bolster local policing.“
500 new officers will join the Force this year but the total number of overall officers will be maintained at current levels.

I'm in the Hallmark recruitment catalog for some reason. A full photo of me. I don't usually look like this. I think they made my teeth whiter and darkened my skin (I'm usually incredibly pale because I never see the sun) Awww, the magic of photoshop. It's kind of weird having my picture in things.
I am never that happy at work, they must have been doing something stupid to get me to smile that big. Who knows what I was looking at.
Looking much too young for army service my father Sydney Wade enlisted in The Suffolk Regiment in 1924
Recruits on the steps of St Georges Hall. The wardrobe of the period isn't very convincing with some of the modern shoes and suits !
Well, I've got Arnie on my side. Not that he never would be, but still. With that I started packing up for my flight to Canada. Should only be there a couple days, but I still brought along way too much money with me. One case of cloths should be enough. My flight leaves in a couple hours, so I locked everything down, walked out my front door and--
"Liz?"
".........."
"Liz, what are you--"
I don't even get to finish my sentence before she runs up and...hugs me? Unexpected but I'll take it. I still like hugs. She holds onto me for like 10 seconds before letting go and looking up at me with this...almost sad look on her face.
"....what happened to you, Chéri?"
"Well, I--uh, Linda and I took the Goemul down and--"
"No, not that, I mean....you've always been such a good man, and you of all people are Bloodfall?"
"You saw it for yourself."
"I've heard so many stories, so much bloodshed....what made you this?"
"I was a victim of this town from day 1, Liz. I've lost so much to the same kind of shit I tried to protect you from a few days ago.....glad you're alright, by the way."
"You're lucky you're in good health, too! I watched the news like you said, Chéri! Nearly 200 of those....those savages?"
"Well, it was split up. Linda got more....for reasons you can guess on your own."
"All those stories about your life you told me....your mother and father...."
"Not complete BS like you're thinking there. My dad was complete, total scum. And my mom....she's doing fine, let's leave it at that."
"And you....it's so hard to believe...."
"Not a fan of it, are you?"
"....I can see why you...or Bloodfall needs to exist....but why does it have to be you?"
"Y'know, sometimes I ask that myself....right now I really wish it wasn't me."
"I just....it's so unbelievable....."
"Liz, look, I can tell you're not having any fun with this. If you don't ever wanna see me again, I understand. Hell, it might be for the better. Someone like you deserves a good life. One without the real me in it."
"W-what? Why would I want that? You're my only famile left, I don't want to lose you!"
"Really?"
"Cousin, you said I was family to you and that you loved me....I don't care who you are, you're family to me and I love you, too...."
"...that's one of the nicest things anyone's ever said to me in my entire life, Liz..."
".....why do you have a suitcase? Where are you going?"
"Ah, shit...gonna have to explain this to you, too."
"Explain what? Now what's happening?"
"The government knows who I am, Liz and now they've got me doing their dirty work rather I want to or not, else you and everyone else I care for get's one between the eyes."
"Oh mon Dieu... Where are they taking you?"
"Well, I'm going to your homeland, actually. Got a friend up north in Canada I need to talk to about this. In 2 weeks here though I'm off to a pit of a country called Wymarcie."
"Wymarcie? W-why do they want you there?"
"Remember last year when we got rocked by a terrorist attack? Guy with a claw-arm bombed the place?"
"Y-yes! The hospital I worked at during that time was hit!"
"You were in one of the bombings!?"
"Yes. I've never been so scared in my life...."
"Fantastic, 'cause this wasn't personal enough. Anyway, the jackoff that nearly killed you is still alive."
"B-but you killed him! They had photos of the body, the stab wound was unsurvivable!"
"I couldn't believe it either. Big brother was keeping an eye on him wherever he went and he's been sticking around in Wymarcie with his army. They want me to finish the job and find out what he's up to."
"You against that monster's army!? Chéri, that's suicide, you can't do that, not on your own!"
"I know, that's what I'm heading to Canada for. And I've got friends in the U'K I'm trying to reach. And y'know, since you're here now...."
"W-what?"
"Liz, you're an amazing Doctor, and Linda told me about your time as a relief worker."
"What are you getting to?"
"I'm not gonna make you do this Liz, but I really, really could use a medic over there."
"Me? F-fighting?"
"You shouldn't have to, that's not why I'd like you there with me. Wymarcie can't be doing good, Liz. Alot of people over there are probably suffering. People that could use your help."
"I don't like fighting, Cousin...."
"And like I said, you shouldn't have to. You might, but that's not why I could use you. If you don't wanna do this, you don't have to."
"........."
"I don't need an answer right now. It's gonna be a bit before they send me over there. I'd really appreciate it if think about it, though."
".....what do you need me to do, Chéri?"
"I don't know yet, really. Can you drop me at the airport, though? I don't wanna take the bus..."
“What! These new recruits are nothing but monkeys!” After seeing Lord Vader's reaction to the newest recruit Ted feels a little bit more secure about his future.
I'm gonna take a stab at it and assume that the "Recruiter" shirt with the rainbow flag is an ironic twist on the belief some hate groups have about gay people "recruitiung" young men and women to their "ranks."
I think that since hate groups try and recruit people all the time, in the name of God or hate or whatever agenda they are trying to push, they see the world as acting the same.

This image, which dates from 1979, is part of a series Greater Manchester Police produced for a recruitment campaign.
Passengers disembark from a British Airtours flight to find themselves greeted by the sight of two officers on high alert.
The sergeant in the background stands by a classic police-liveried Land Rover, while the officer in the foreground has to make do with a Talbot – albeit with a very impressive rooftop sign.
The image was taken at Manchester Airport, still known to many locals at the time as Ringway.
Built as a replacement for Manchester’s first municipal airfield at Barton, Manchester Ringway Airport was constructed between 1935 and 1938.
With the onset of World War 2 an RAF base was added to the site in 1939.
RAF Ringway was originally home to the No 1 Operational Training Unit of Costal Command and later the base of the No 1 Parachute Training School. The base was also sometime home of 613 (City of Manchester) Squadron.
Fairey Aviation and Avro also constructed over 4400 warplanes on the site.
RAF Ringway closed in 1957 and the whole site has been developed into the modern Manchester International Airport.

After 2 hours of trying in the hottest day of the year (108 degrees), Lisa Arturo and I were able to get the two dogs into one corner... a place with dense vegetation.
We quickly recruited 6 kids to hold my portable fence... this helped us secure them in one location, and without these kids we really couldn't have saved the dogs that day.
“Bah! He wasn’t so tough, I could take him with one hand behind my back,” grunted one of the dragon soldiers as he tore into a fish. The man to his left coughed and laughed as he guzzled down his ale. “Sure you could. Did you know who that was? That was THE Grogkarn of the northern wastes. He could tear your limbs off, he could. I heard him grumbled he traveled all the way from Garheim to meet with Drakk, so you know the rumors of his prowess must be true.”
“Bah!” the first soldier responded with a dismissive wave and he too drank his ale. The others chuckled and continued to eat their dinner.
The soldiers were guarding a sea fort gifted to Drakk by the Baron himself. It served as one of Drakk’s outposts, a study for his magics, a prison, and a vault for some of his treasures. Today it served as a meeting spot for some of the Badland’s most infamous mercenaries--Drakk was recruiting.
Commander Ester, lieutenant of the Baron and liaison to Drakk, stood in the antechamber along with two grey robed monks and three strangers. One was leaning against the stairwell, a middle aged man with graying hair and wrinkles with a permanent scowl on his face. He wore leather armor and had various weapons strapped all over along with an impressive collection of vials filled with poisons and swirling vapors strapped to his belt. Another stood boldly in front of the fireplace, warming his hands and grinning an evil smile. Large for a hobgoblin, he wore dark armor with ancient runes, no doubt looted from some forgotten temple. The third man stood frowning in front of Commander Ester. He dwarfed the other men in the chamber. His muscles tensed and his bold mustache bristled as he spoke to the Commander.
“Please, gentleman, wait your turn,” the Commander pleaded to those assembled. “The Sorcerer will speak to you soon.”
“I have not traveled all the way from Garhiem to wait in this blasted room!” Roared the half-giant. The hobgoblin regarded his gloves as he spoke up, “Yes indeed. My boys waiting outside the walls are not the most patient sort.” The assassin merely continued to lean, his scowl deepening.
Behind the large doors Drakk sat behind his desk and regarded his first interviewee. A bald man with a dark beard, he wore black decorated silk robes and carried a staff. He could sense the magic flowing off the man, and knew the reputation of the illusionist was not one of exaggeration. “Nozif the Illusionist, welcome. I’ll get to the point, the Baron has sent out a rallying cry to bolster our numbers. I personally desire only the best money can buy to join my list of allies, and so here you are. What do you say?”
Nozif inclined his head as a token of respect. “Word of your power and ambition reaches even my ears Drakk the Dragon Sorcerer. I would be honored to be considered your ally.”
“Excellent, I will be in touch my friend.” With another nod, Nozif walked back to the doors to exit the chamber. “Three more to go…” Drakk muttered to himself.
Model: Gage Nelson
Gage is an amazing model to work with. We did a whole bunch of shots in downtown LA, but this one is one of my faves of the day.
My 85 1.2 never fails - it’s a beast but I love the tight focus on Gage in this shot.
