I agree that it's not right, but it's something that's been "institutionalized" within the military. I don't know for a fact, but I'd wager the same thing happens in the other service branches. The oficers who came from the service academy's are told from the start they are the best of the best. Hopefully we'll go back to the promotion of someone based on "merit" that my beloved military talks so much about.

If that is true, then the military needs to change before it's too late.
