I don’t feel bad at all. As for my son, I feel nothing but pride.
What I know though, is that your mouth is writing checks that your own ass won’t cash. Citizens have more freedoms and opportunity to create change then soldiers, so why don’t you lead something instead of chastising others for something you won’t do yourself.
Soldiers take the oath to defend the Constitution. Just ask your son. If a few more officers had honored their sworn oath like Col. Lakin, Obama would have had to step down, IMHO.
I don't expect 18 year old recruits to understand Constitutional law. The officer corps is another story.
