Might as well. It was originally called that, and the DoD name was always kind of a lame coat of off-white landlord paint.

Well, Dept. of War and Dept. of The Navy became DoD. I used to work for them, some people think I'm a Veteran because I use the block print and the 24h time and today is 25Aug25. I'm not, never been shot at but that shit just gets ingrained in you.
