Who's on Guard Duty???
 

Guards Go Stiff at Local Army Base

I have heard stories about local police departments using empty parked cruisers to scare drivers into obeying the speed limit, but this is the first I have heard of an Army base pulling the same trick.

Locals in TaoYuan Province, Taiwan, noticed that the guards around a local Army base always seemed to stand in the same position without moving.

Curious, some locals went in closer to inspect the soldiers and were shocked at what they found.

The soldiers were actually dummies dressed up as soldiers and armed with fake rifles.

As the news spread, many locals began visiting the Army base to see the fake soldiers.

An official from the base explained that the reason they assigned fake soldiers to posts was due to a manpower shortage. They figured the fake soldiers would be sufficient in scaring away any attackers.

The Army base has now removed the dummy soldiers after being harshly criticized for the “ridiculous act”.

LOL

But really it's not a horrible short term idea IMO it would help if it were more lifelike and if they had someone at least reposition them every once and a while

The MPs at Ft Huacha pull that shit on occasion

Retarded.

Yeah, there is a training base in Georga that they had a car with a dummy in it. The only reason I knew any better was because my dad helped set it up.

lol..genius!
