Last week the U.S. Air Force tweeted to the world that it needs help naming its newest bomber, the B-21 Long Range Strike Bomber. (What could possibly go wrong?) Well ... we discuss the possibilities and provide examples where crowdsourcing failed. We also discuss the OV-10 Bronco's comeback and what it means in the fight against ISIS. And on a lighter note, we talk about which service branch we'd join knowing what we know about the military today.
