Most military personnell are very conservative. The Army stays in "Forts" which implies a defensive posture. The USMC stays in "Camps" which implies constant movement on the offensive. Bzzzzt! Wrong answer,dumbass! I am a retired military officer, and after spending more than twenty years in the military, I am somewhat of an expert. "Forts," are permanant facilities. "Camps," are temporary. The Army has plenty of camps. One of the most famous is Camp Perry, where the NRA National Rifle Matches take place. You are right that politics is a big topic in the military, especially amongst the more educated commissioned officers. I was a junior officer in the USMC until I got promoted to the Navy Seals. NB Wrong again, dumbass. Nobody gets promoted to the Navy Seals. If you were an officer in the USMC, you would have to have a College degree. That would make you one of the educated commissioned officers. I am calling you a liar. It is obvious you are an Army type who has never read Clausewitz. I You just ****ed me off. My copy of Clausewitz is highlighted, and there are notes on every page. As is my copy of Sun Tzu, and War Commentaries of Caesar. And many other books in my library. shot at Camp Perry with a Stoner rifle along with my Seal Squadron. After 20 years what rank did you have? Ensign? Ensign? Ensign? Ensign? You have proved yourself a fool! There are no Ensigns in the Army! This post is 100% free of steroids |
