[QUOTE="ssj4sadie, post: 16296250, member: 2456"] It is the idea that somehow in the military everyone is this model "solider", squared away at all corners, a high and tight, and steel rod for a back stuff that is silly. That is what I'm attacking. But that is really only talking to the enlisted side. The O side (I'm not an O. However, I work closely with them), resembles the civilian side much more closely. Granted a lot of the military stuff is there. But they are allowed to be people whereas the enlisted are expected to rule following automatons. That is the entire point of the rigid structure; to keep the ones below you in line. I guess you do not know, but at this point I've put in 14 1/2 years to this country. So I'm not anti-military by any means. But I've encountered enough retirees (and former military) that have the "back in my day" attitude, and quite frankly it is bullshit. Many and I mean almost all of the dumb ass retarded briefings I have to attend are a result of shit "back in the day". [/QUOTE]
