The two things I highlighted in red are key the senior NCO's need to advise that Commander, they are the checks and balance, the senior O's may realy be out of touch with reality. ( Not thier fault ) they are making policy from what they belive and are told. And at the same time Commander's need to trust what the NCO's are telling him ( dont replace a guy just because he does not conform to your way of thinking.)
It's a sad truth we have alot of (yes men) around latly and anyone that rocks the boat is replaced.
