PENTAGON – The Department of Defense has announced the creation of a 10th Combatant Command, SCENTCOM, focused on unifying efforts of highly scented products sold on military bases through “consultants.”

“The second-largest source of income in the DoD after base pay is home-based businesses,” said Pentagon spokesman Peter Cook. “We find that there’s enormous economic and social power in candles, lotions, air fresheners — basically anything that smells nice. We’re unifying these efforts across the globe, joint services, and living room lube parties.”

SCENTCOM will be the fourth functional command, and will be headquartered in Fort Bragg, N.C. where unsanctioned scented product pyramid scheme units began to flourish decades ago.
