No, not all O's I have served with were bad....I just think that moving them out for awhile would have cut down on all the staff positions that had to be created to keep them. I do agree with bringing him in as a LT like we used to, get more "SF" time out of him.

Sending them back to conventional ranks for awhile, could be good or bad. It would spread the capabilities of us to the conventional side who does not truly understand our operations, or....it could go the other way around I suppose.

Look at what we have now, "Purple" commands, most of the people we work for now aren't SF anyway...but claim "SOF"...but are they realy??

Having an SF General is great....but what "weight" do they really have??

Seems like we are always getting the short end of the stick....anyway, just one of my rants...and pet peaves.

I'm just a little guy, never made it past a BN staff job (except where I'm at now, but I'm a civvy). I'm sure there's a bigger picture than my little world....but I like my little world.
