Lieutenant Ketch! And no it wasn't an ewok. They *thought* it was an Ewok though. It was a stuffed teddybear style Ewok toy strapped to the chest of Wedge Antilles, with a voice mod on his comms system. I think it was book 8 in the X-wing series. "Iron Fist" Great book.
That was Wedge, actually! They were undercover, but he was waaaay too well-known as a Hero of the Rebellion/New Alliance to show anything close to his face. Especially if, as they were, they had to deal with the Imperial Remnant, as his sister married Soontir Fel, one of their ace pilots.

Divert Franklin and buddies with Mary Janes and Cow Tails. Have you ever seen a racoon trying to eat a Mary Jane? It's hilarious. Peanut butter, taffy and it chews forever if you've got little racoon teeth.
Love this idea, maybe the front of the shirt could have The Kid and Franklin flying off together, and the back could be the smoldering hanger doors 😂 I'd buy it

Having been a BSA rifle instructor, it's best we send the coast guard. The scouts get a little "feral" and we'll need 2 whole new pages of "things you can't do to the enemy with the wildlife" added to the Geneva convention
To everyone talking smack about the USCG, keep in mind that this is the same branch that routinely flies in weather that the other branches won't even think about flying in and trains people to swim in some of the worst conditions imaginable so they can rescue people. Oh, and they sank several German and Japanese submarines during WWII, not to mention that the only Medal of Honor awarded to someone for what they did while serving in the USCG was given to Douglas Albert Munro while he was helping a unit of US Marines pull back from a position that had been overrun by the Japanese. He may have died in the doing, but he did it. So yeah, the USCG may not have the USN's, the USMC's, the USAF's, or the US Army's combat record. They're still not a bunch you want to mess around with.
I live in Michigan, so Coast Guard City (but the size of the state), you know to never mess with the Coast Guard. They will put their life in the line to save yours...but don't expect them to enjoy it. Every year, someone goes out on one of the Great Lakes during a storm. First rule of the state, avoid the Lakes during a storm. They turn 800ft ships into scrape. Any personal boat will be dust in those storms. Guess you will STILL rescue your butt, THE USCG.
They also helped patrol the rivers in Veitnam, did minesweeping in during Gulf War, and routinely put up with irate fishermen, and drunks after accidents who need airlift in Alaska.
@@ladygrey7425 Because the waves are sick! It's a pretty popular thing to watch the waves come onto shore right before a big storm hits Michigan. Yet, we have a song about a fairly normal (severe) storm sinking the Pride of Michigan (the Edmund Fitzgerald). We are Northern Florida :)
Dang it who in the world let Rocket team up with the F-22 of all the chaotic duos! *"How's your former military" that was was an absolute violation yet that was amazing!*

Third watch, came back for the Franklin jokes. I just caught the "consider every canoe a threat" joke What a brilliant tie in to your earlier Boy Scout joke.
I love how you manage to somehow connect all of these in one overarching story that always devolved Into the f-22 being borderline psychotic. Well done dude.
"CloudStrike" sounds like something we'd name a missile system.

I nominate the guy behind the Raccoon Federation to voice Franklin
I am getting weirdly invested in Franklin the Raccoon lore.
@@archangeldo913 this. Face, the racoon

Oh gods this is so much more accurate 😂 this is my headcanon now 😂
- a Marine who sympathizes with the kid 😂😂

We got so fed up we sent the coast guard. Not even the navy, deadass just the coast guard

@williamthehuntsman oh that's certain China is on the same level as Russia and Russia just lost the naval side of the war with Ukraine who might I add doesn't even have a navy 😂
So Coast Guard doesn't only guard the coast?
Honestly, you would be surprised how well-equipped the freaking Coast Guard is. It's like a mini Navy.
Having the kid refer to f-35 as "the fucking computer" really sent me. It's hilarious

Yes
I was thinking he's a member of the Raccoon Federation as Gary the Raccoon is the leader of it.😂
The moment F-35 said the "I" word, I KNEW shit was going down. LOL!
Franklin the Raccoon has become such a reoccuring joke that F-22's trying to elope.
