Well, since I'm not talking to a military officer, I guess I have to consider the source.

The only difference between this material and "officer material" is that I won't suck dick for a living.

More to the point, many enlisted men and women choose their vocation, and career path in the military. You can see the "big picture", and set all the policy...steer the ship all you like.

Enlisted men and women work on the ground where the rubber meets the road.

After all the big wigs make their big picture plans, we will be there to clean up their mess and make em look good.

Don't disparage enlisted men and women as somehow being less then. The ability to regurgitate all them cool facts and figures...with flow charts, doesn't amount to squat when hot lead is slapping off of the concrete wall to your front. It's all balls and action at that point.

I know this is a thread about Korea. Back to your regularly scheduled thread.

That's all I have to say about that.
