Are you saying that his father being a US Army Lieutenant Colonel Vietnam combat vet and a Green Beret isn’t evidence of character?

U.S. Defence Secretary Robert McNamara had decided that U.S. soldiers should have limitless access to sex in order to ease the horrors of war. Brothels were established in Bangkok with Thai entrepreneurs paid by U.S. officials.
Dubbed ‘I & I’ breaks - intercourse and intoxication - Woods’ job was to ensure the soldiers had a good time. Despite his officer status, he found it difficult to resist temptation.
Indeed, he found a Thai girl of his own - despite the fact he had a wife, Barbara, back home.

Apparently those things aren’t an indication of character.

I can't answer for 'freedomfiter2' but I would say that being a US Army Lieutenant Colonel Vietnam combat vet and a Green Beret isn’t evidence of character.

Character isn't what you've accomplished. Character is what you do when you think no one is looking.

Tiger's father may have been a fine gentleman of extraordinary character. Then again, he may not have been. It means nothing when trying to gauge Tiger's character. Genealogy means nothing.

Tiger's actions in this tournament AND the last one...as well as all the lying and cheating on his wife...has proven Tiger to be a low life and a reprobate.

As an USAF veteran, I can tell you that neither rank or unit is evidence of character. It’s something you come into the service with or without. Trust me.
