Duffel Blog is a parody of a news organization. All content published on this site is satirical in nature. No content should be regarded as truthful, and no reference to any individual, company, or military unit seeks to inflict malice or emotional harm. All characters, groups, and military units appearing in these works are fictitious. Any resemblance to real persons, living or dead, or actual military units and companies is purely coincidental.

That said, if you recognized yourself in one of our articles, there's probably a reason.

This is not a news source. Duffel Blog does not report news. We make it up. If you are a member of Congress, a member of the press, or a member of your local school board and you have cited Duffel Blog as a factual source, that is not our fault. We encourage you to read the article again, slowly, and then issue whatever correction your communications staff advises.

Opinions expressed in Duffel Blog articles — including op-eds, quotes attributed to fictional characters, and statements made by satirical versions of real public figures — are not the actual opinions of those individuals, of the Department of Defense, of any branch of the U.S. military, or of the United States government. They are jokes. Some of them are good.

Imagery and media

Duffel Blog uses U.S. Department of Defense imagery in accordance with established guidelines. Appearance of U.S. Department of Defense visual information does not imply or constitute DOD endorsement. The Department of Defense has not endorsed Duffel Blog. We have asked.

No professional advice

Nothing on this site constitutes legal, financial, medical, or military advice. If you are making life decisions based on content from Duffel Blog, we respectfully suggest you speak with a qualified professional, or at minimum, a friend who will be honest with you.

The Veteran Benefits Finder is an exception. That one is real and intended to provide useful information. The rest of the site is not.

Age restriction

Duffel Blog is not intended for readers under the age of 18. If you are under 18 and reading this, you are not the first person to ignore an age restriction on the internet, but we'd prefer you come back later.

Limitation of liability

Duffel Blog, its editors, writers, and contributors shall not be held liable for any damages arising from the use of this site, including but not limited to: hurt feelings, involuntary laughter during formations, coffee expelled through the nose onto government equipment, or any adverse career actions resulting from sharing Duffel Blog articles in official channels.
