Bagram Batman is the nag the Army needs right now, apparently

Looks like the IRS isn’t the only government agency to try and instruct its subordinates with the power of nerdiness. The Army has apparently made this PSA starring “Bagram Batman,” who teaches a foolish soldier that wearing headphones can kill you.

It’s far less offensive than the IRS’ Star Trek training video, if only because that cost taxpayers $60,000 and this cost whatever the price of a mid-level Batman: The Dark Knight Rises mask at a Halloween store runs nowadays. Unless, of course, the Army actually paid the licensing fee to use Taylor Swift’s “I Knew You Were Trouble.” Which, to be fair, would hardly be the most unnecessary thing the Army has ever paid for.
