no i have full repectt for us soldiers
this was a part time reservist, a social worker full time.
Just a one off, we have some of those in our own forces
whats notable is the real fighting soldiers from the us (the full time marines) were fully supportive of collins, and lambasted the reservist for damaging relations. I imagine he got worse off his own senior commanders.
If a uk soldier had done the same to a us officer id have expected him to be in big trouble bte

A social "scientist". Why am I not surprised that this petty, back-biting, clown is a social scientist?
I hope that all FR community members remember that social science is considered a 'soft science'. Translation: All soft, no science.
What we seem to have here is the inevitable result of sending a student through four years of a soft science taught by socialists. Not surprisingly, behavior ('acting out' to use the groupspeak of the social scientist) such as this reservist exhibited is the all too common result.
May Col. Collins continue to be an example for students. He is a refreshing change from what now lurks in the Groves of the Academe.

Glad to hear you're so sporting and understanding about it. The English-speaking peoples, as Churchill termed us, have to stick together.
