FORT BRAGG – In a sign of the Army’s progress and “People First strategy,” soldiers of the 18th Field Artillery Brigade called their female commander an asshole instead of a bitch today.
Pfc. Samuel Martino was immediately scolded after referring to Capt. Lisa Fillip as a “total bitch” and a “withering hag” after she led them in a tough CrossFit workout for physical training Monday morning.
The soldier was immediately reprimanded by his squad leader Sgt. Phil Walters for using gendered slurs, as opposed to generally abusive language, to criticize his female commander.
