I would say that the US is a very weird place, but then I remembered that this

is the flagship of the British Navy First British Sea Lord. She hasn't floated for literally 100 years.

So mostly I guess it's just that militaries are weird.

Holy shit George Washington would hate this policy. He was done being commander in chief! That's why he stepped down after 2 terms! I get it's symbolic, but his whole thing regarding the office was "don't deify me."

It’s the year 30,000. God-Emperor George Washington moans to life and leads Earth to war against the rest of the universe.

Calling it now, once Trump finds out this exists, he’ll do something to try and supersede that to put him at the top.

Maybe a 6 star general with the pips arranged like a Star of David.

"Dearest Zombie Martha: Winter at Valley Forge is exceedingly desperate. The harsh wind whistles through the men's exposed rib cages, and our supply of brains is running low."

this tradition stems for Washington holding a general rank in the British military before rebellion, and the US traditionally never having a rank higher than the one he held in the British military, so when we actually did need those ranks because practicality, they just bumped him up.

“No kings”

A reanimated body couldn't be worse at governing than our current administration.

He missed the opportunity to leave a standing order to kill any president that ordered illegal orders.

Usual US militarism

That's the Sandy Petersen of DOOM fame. Wicked.

Chat, is this real?

Definitely no cult of personality there™

North Korea does something similar. America needs to get over the founding fathers and progress as a country.

if the zombie apocalypse ever happens, there will be a lot of Black people he owned wanting to play football with his decapitated head

Do zombies follow rules of engagement and chain of command?

Cripes. Wait until the demented rapist hears that. New EO incoming.

It must be nice to have zombie Washington on your side.

Oh God, we put the enemy in charge of our own military, our brains are doomed

I doubt there’s that much left of him apart from the dentures.
