Forgive my limitations. I have many believe me. I was once a young kid in a Marine uniform and posess EXTREME EMPHATY with those young Marines over there. Most by now have lost their girlfrieds and a few their wives. Some have lost buddies. They want finality, not repetitive/tentative mistakes that bring them closer to death, farther away from home and a leave them with a sickening feeling in their gut that nothing but Full Victory and a plane ride could cure.I am not an arnchair General Sir, I am an armchair Lance Corporal. And, after 4 years in the green machine, I earned that right. PC is the death of many military carreers. I know.

It takes some real effort to not get promoted to Corporal in four years. How, exactly, did "PC" end your career?
