I see in the article where Danny says he agrees with your assertion and that he will be “nuked” yet his superiors say, he would not face “adverse action.” We hope pray good will come of his actions.

They are making the same mistakes they made in Vietnam. Perhaps not completely, there are exceptions such as the weapons systems are better (M16 anyone?) and the right training (not sure about this but desert conditions are easier to simulate than jungle).

But the way the war is fought is all wrong. We’re back to not out-G-ing the G. We need to simply get the hell out of there.

He probably won't see "adverse action", in the sense of being demoted or assigned to be morale officer at some arctic base. However, neither is he likely to receive a sufficiently enthusiastic rating to get promoted any time soon, nor is he likely to be assigned to a command position.
