You're no more competent at this than you were as a military ossifer. The only reason you made light colonel was because you stayed in long enough. Harry, "LTC" (O-5) Ins't that easy to come up with regardless of they time you spend in the Army The Army doesn't give 0-5 away, you do have to earn it. Harry's just mad 'cause I won't talk to him. He'll get over it. Besides that, he's a little bit jealous. You have a highly overinflated ego. I wouldn't give a schitt if you got hit by a semi on I-95. You have nothing to offer here or anywhere else, and you prove it with every post. You're the worst excuse for an Army officer I have ever encountered.- Hide quoted text - - Show quoted text - Well, Harry. I may be totally un informed on your interaction with the Mil. But during my 3 yr. stint, I've encountered many an officer (W's as well as O's) and maybe not at that time, but in the long term I've been impressed with the lot of them, especially those who started out as grunts. I wouldn't think that JohnH would be any different. My opinion. My first non-soda-jerk job in high school was for a great fellow, a former air force officer, who ran a manufacturing company. He was possibly the classiest man I ever met, and his wife and daughter were classy, too. In fact, I dated his daughter for a few years. I worked for a general for almost two years as a civilian. He was first-rate. I've run into active and retired officers throughout my life. When my first father in law died, his lawyer turned out to be a retired Army general He was a class act, too. When I lived in West Virginia, my best friend was an Army captain, an M.D., who was the examining physician for the draft and for recruitment. He worked his butt off to help slightly underperforming or underqualified guys with no real future find one in the military. Class act. I probably have a dozen more classy officers with whom I have crossed paths. Herring is trash. |
