Oh I have service experience and am a disabled vet. Of course I’m not the hero you are so I don’t insult other Americans in the line of fire.
You’ve broken the faith chainmail. shame on you, IF you have 29 years it was as a REMF.
“Service experience” “disabled vet” Didn’t say combat vet, didja? I am a combat vet and have holes in my body to prove it. I also spent those 28 years training and leading a couple of generations of combat leaders and developing new technologies, tactics and doctrine.
Nobody does any of us any favors by candy-coating failure. If you are or weren’t professional enough to raise your voice when things went wrong, then you weren’t a leader, you were a cheerleader.
