I think all Freerepublic members should be banned from examining pictures for 48 hours, this is ridiculous.
Sorry, but I've had experience with silly females in the military who play stupid games and give the rest of us a bad name. Officers included. It's hard enough being female in the service and it seems you have to work twice or three times as hard to be taken seriously and earn a solid reputation. Maybe I'm carrying a lot into this, but it reminded me of another female Major who behaved very badly while deployed....
