The most overused answer is to “kill people and break things.”

And to drink their beer and dance with their women...

Have you no self respect? Your link to you is broken.

In 1972 i attended basic training in the US Army. The first week I was sent to a race relations seminar. I was placed in a subgroup of perhaps 12 trainees. The moderator was a black SFC (E-7). The SFC and the black trainee of the group commenced to tell the white trainees what horrible people we were. I was on active duty for 4 years and every year we had one of these little barn dances. My Company Commander in Berlin said to me that everybody in company got along fine until the annual race relations seminar. Each year they were more contentious. Most of the white soldiers despised these things and I am resentful to this day.

Can anyone name a white, male EO officer?

Anyone at all...

Don’t be shy...

One observation, should we get into comparing today’s volunteer Army to the older conscript Army. When I was in I encountered little racial conflict because most soldiers just wanted to do their time and get out without getting into trouble.
