#1 Take every Army "Superior" who passed him and strip them of one rank.

In the Military losing a stripe means the end of your career, and good riddance.

#2 My money says they wont you can quote me on it 2/23/2010. I hope I am wrong.

Ive seen Officers give military secrets to noncomabatants (which I reported to higher ups)and Officers in my unit almost murder 2 people (by accident) and they got nothing in the way of punishing that stuck.

But again, my offensive diatribe that called for the complete overhaul of the Officer Corps met with little support here on Rantburg by Officers past and present, so its conceivable that reforming the Officer Corp's will go over equally poorly in the macrocosm that is the actual Army. Just a guess backed up by experience. Nothing More. Take it for whats its worth.

Yes, it was offensive. Especially when you insist on tarring every other service with the 'Army brush'.

Navy CO's get relieved of command - a lot. Twelve or so within within the last 14 months, if my count is right. And it's equal opportunity*.

Something you might want to keep in the back of your mind.

*Sad part is, she was one of my career-mentors when I was an ensign.

#4 This isn't about me. What I am referring to here is THE ARMY though not explicitly spelled out, its implied, and its linking up with the article about THE ARMY and I am speaking about my experiences in THE ARMY. And my diatribe may have left out that out, but that too, was referring to THE ARMY. I call it like I see it. If people don't like it, and I've apologized at a certain point I say to them, you haven't walked in my mocassins And people who are Officers in THE ARMY might try to develop thick skins if they haven't already (and why wouldn't one have a thick skin as an OFFICER IN THE ARMY)? That is why this psycho shrink killed all those innocents IN THE ARMY, because some (not all) OFFICERS IN THE ARMY have NOT ENOUGH BRAIN....NOT ENOUGH SPINE....LACKING ENOUGH GOOD JUDGEMENT.... TOO PAMPERED....TOO WORRIED ABOUT BIG PAYCHECKS...TOO PROTECTED FROM PUNISHMENT....MR N.HASAN is SYMPTOMATIC of A LARGE PROBLEM IN THE ARMY.
