The 13 funniest military memes for the week of Dec. 1

It's December now, and as we stare down the barrel of Christmas, Hanukkah, Kwanzaa... um... Boxing Day... and probably others (the only holiday I care about it National Waffle Day), we can finally look forward to holiday leave.

We spend time with family, drink in that one bar in our hometown that everyone we've ever known goes to, and open up the new fighting season in the war on Christmas.

Now matter how stressful the holiday season can get, you know who has your back? Memes. Veterans will make memes until they run out of jokes to tell. Did you see how much fun they had with the sky dick?

Oh man, anyway... here are the best memes of the week, created by your veteran social media community.

1. A toast to war criminals the world over!

2. Marines are a contentious people.
