Okay, so she can read a map, or so she says.

There's an old joke out there, that could be applied to Kamala: the most dangerous weapon in the Army is a 2nd Lieutenant with a map. I think Kamala is much more dangerous than a butterbar.

I know, I was a 2nd LT for two years. It was easy to navigate in the area I was stationed in Germany. There were small towns everywhere, all you had to do was locate the church to reorient yourself.

Unfortunately, my CO was like Captain Sobel in Band of Brothers. He misread the coordinates and gave a Vulcan platoon a ten kilometer route defense. I was pulling double duty as XO and Maintenance Officer, so I was not on site to correct the error.

A Vulcan gun had a maximum effective range of 1 KM, 4 guns were not near enough to accomplish the mission.
