#2 You know, it seems that whenever I read an article about Pakistan it makes as much sense as this quote from the article:
"one of the Air Force officers, a civilian,"
Now is the problem me? the English as a second language skills of the author? or is that just the way Pakistan is? Inquiring minds want to know...

#3 Lazy editor or proofreading.

#4 Do they have Reserves (Civilian Soldiers) Like we do?
