And finally… space farce

A soldier in the United States Space Force has been demoted after he abandoned training to buy a PlayStation 5.

And finally... space farce

When contacted by his superior, he replied: “Yolo, PS5 > letters of discipline.”

As a result of his transgression, he was demoted from senior airman to airman 1st class.



A letter sent to him after the incident states: “You were late to work and insinuated to your supervisor that buying a PlayStation was more important to you than the disciplinary consequences of your actions.

“Your actions are an extreme deviation from the professionalism expected of you as a member of the armed forces.”
