Minot AFB airmen take the Tetris challenge with all the equipment they lost this year

Filed · 1552

MINOT AFB, N.D. — Air Force leaders are applauding a group of airmen for using the popular “Tetris Challenge” to show how much shit enterprising security police forces can lose in just one year.

The Tetris Challenge is a recent series of internet postings featuring military, first-responder, or law enforcement units from around the world posing with weapons and equipment in geometric layouts to show the type and breadth of paraphernalia required to execute their respective missions.

“That’s boring!” said Minot oublic affairs officer Maj. Matt Beck. “Posing with on-hand equipment requires little imagination. I’ve made more difficult patterns during mindfulness exercises in Air Force leadership training.”
