"D" at The CI-Roller Dude ("News (real or made up), war stories of a Cop and a Army National Guard Vet of SFOR, OIF etc, Disaters!") remarks on the lingering garrison mentality.
Money quote(s):
"A WWII Nazi General said: "The US Army does so well in war because the deal with Chaos everyday."
The main problem the US Military has now on deployments is the leaders are trained not for war, but for how to do stuff in a non-war environment. In both Bosnia and Iraq, we had to stop missions ( I mean real live things that needed to be done) so we could come in and fill out things like evaluation reports....or sit a listen to a class on affirmative action ( we had almost every race, religion as well as male and females on most missions -- I think we were very diverse and gave everyone and equal chance to die in Iraq!)"

"I can't wait to retire and get a prescription for medical marijuana and make the last 30 years a blurrrrrrr......"
