I don't watch Hollywood's version of anything and I have not had a TV in a quarter century. I was in the Military, though, and I know that things can go pretty far before the troops realize what is up. Most of us were not in on the planning of operations.

Many troop will go along with whatever is happening and a first operation may be botched and fall apart. Such things happen in any new revolutionary force. Then the unreliables are weeded out as they show themselves to be, in fact, unreliable, and subsequent operations become more focused and efficient.

Sorry, I completely and totally disagree with your assessment here.

No biggie, unlike liberals we are allowed to disagree from time to time.
