The CMSgt's quote below has me in stitches- isn't drawing fire the last thing you want to do- Evade it, destroy it, have airpower delivered on it- sure- didn't Patton say something about making the other SOB die for His country.....?


"I stand ready to ruck up, move out, and draw fire as directed"

But then, I never did get the right cover sheet on my TPS....

Back to the important point- they don't get it. They never have- the pendulum swings, there is no null. As the economy dives for a while the military would seem great- except for the current duty locations... I shudder to think what it would take for them to go 2 track like the brits at least in the USAF and at least for the rated officers... We'll see who the offer up for the next SECAF and CC.
