Put some slack in your halyards ladies.

It's fucking "Robin Sage" for chrissakes. It's the final unconventional warfare exercise for new guys going through the SFQC (Special Forces Qualification Course), about to graduate as newly minted Green Berets, and it takes place in the mythical country of "Pineland". It's only been going on about 6 or 7 times a year (depending on the number of classes that are run that year) since 1974. The locals have been taking part in it ever since the very beginning. Ask anyone who lives anywhere in the general vicinity of the Pisgah National Forest.

I went through it in 1980 (SFQC Class 7-80), and went back to be an instructor later in 1990. If you're gonna hyperventilate about something, make it something that isn't about as "secret" as the fucking tide tables. I have an old "Liberate Pineland" t-shirt for fucks sake. https://cdn.shopify.com/s/files/1/0699/6761/products/visit-pineland-triblend-athletic-shirt-t-shirt-printify-tri-blend-heather-white-m-393817_720x.jpg?v=1603165824

Graduates of SERE will understand this one: https://cdn.shopify.com/s/files/1/0699/6761/products/peoples-pond-triblend-athletic-shirt-t-shirt-printify-tri-blend-vintage-red-l-381973_720x.jpg?v=1603221470

And fyi, the guys graduating from Robin Sage would be on our side.
