The Official Army Headquarters Base of the Ace of Spades HQ Has Been Selected

After long minutes of contemplation, the III Corps Headquarters located in Fort Hood, Texas, has been chosen as the Official Army Headquarters of the Ace of Spades HQ blog.

The evidence justifying the selection of this base is unassailable and none dare stand before it:

@PulpLibrarian One of the military bases I grew up on had a corps headquarters which used this character for their 'Phantom Warrior' mascot: pic.twitter.com/NIzixlKS8e

Searching on III Corps, I also found reference to some program to rehabilitate low-level offenders (drunk drivers, etc.) in the Army into more law-abiding soldiers located at the base. That only recommends it more.

For those who can't view Twitter, 1, congrats, it's a timesuck that reduces life expectancy, and 2, here are the pictures.

Below is Frank Frazetta's immortal pulp masterpiece "Death Dealer," painted, they say, in 1973. This picture represents for men of a certain age (nearly 29) all that is good and desirous in life.

This is a statue of the III Corps' base mascot, which they call "Phantom Warrior."

That mascot is so badass he tells Batman "Suck my dick" and Batman says "Maximum eye contact, or no eye contact? Sir?"
