Well I’ve only been a part of the military from 17 to my late forties and I’ve taken an active interest in what has happened and is going no. So I am familiar with Mikey Weinstein. I am familiar with Sara Lister. I am familiar with Eric Fanning. I am familiar with Richard Danzig. I know what theses folks have done and want to do to our military. Google the names Schurmann...I’m certain many of them are not familiar to you.

“Well I’ve only been a part of the military from 17 to my late forties ... .I’m certain many of them are not familiar to you.”

MSF BU has missed the boat again. To carry the metaphor a touch farther, it doesn’t appear he knew there was a boat, a canal, or a schedule in the first place.

I’d love to ask the question: why does every member of the senior armed services feel free to offer USAF advice, on absolutely everything? I gather they know everything, merely because their institutional forbears arrived earlier. Age does not bring wisdom, not necessarily. As 17 to 40-plus ought to suggest.

I know all the names on MSF BU’s list. Mike Weinstein was one of my underclassmen. So there’s nothing he can tell me.

But after 29 years in uniform, dealing with a number of headaches and surreal consequences courtesy of the personnel experts (to varying degrees of success), I will refrain from offering MSF BU advice on what the US Army ought to do, or not do, concerning personnel.

MSF BU has made a cardinal error in equating morality with effectiveness. Many other posters have made the same mistake. The two proceed along different axes.
