I was at the Pentagon for a couple of weeks, in the individual ready reserve, for a technical assignment as a Meteorologist, as an Army 1st Lt. (O2)

I had a fellow Chief who had been my LPO (Lead Petty Officer) do tour at the Pentagon. She used call to tell me stories about the expert level of butt kissing that was going on. She also told me a few stories out of school about how close a working relationship many of the male Officers at the Pentagon had after hours. (During DADT) A few were surprising. Only thing worse then watching JOs kissing some Admirals ring was working with DC Pentagon Swamp Rat Marine Officers fast tracking it to General. Most arrogant self loving pricks I ever met. During the war, it was amazing, I worked with some very interesting senior people in the DOD. The war ended, the majority of lions left the pride and the remaining pricks may have been lions once but the quickly devolved into swamp rats or lambs.
