Welcome to the forum.

Please O of E set him free, as I think we may be able to learn somethings about how the Infantry of today are coping with multi operational tour's, and the standard of training and equipment.

Lets face it, if he has enough gumption and initiative (someguy6) to enlist in the first place, not like a lot of other youngsters, sorry layabout idle individuals. I say we give him a chance.

Tony

I would have to throw my lot in with toemag on this Colonel for what it's worth.Yes,he's young,brash and a bit of a smart-ass,but that's by far better than young,brash and a dumb-ass who didn't volunteer to serve his country.

Count yourself lucky soilder, less of the attitude and closed mind, more on listening and reasoning. You'll do well here.

I have looked back on your previous posts, You are young and so people will forgive you, but you appear to be a little to quick off the mark. I am ex military and have seen many nasty horrible things, hopefully on your tour(s) you will be spared from seeing them.
Only now am I beginning to see a fuller picture of all that is around me and that is down to maturity and being respectful of others.
I think that if you are disrespectful of others and their opinions then you are going to get into serious trouble.
