This is the essence of veteran entitlement that I absolutely loathe. Non-veterans absolutely get to have an opinion about all things military, and they should, given civilian control of DoD. I'm embarrassed by fellow vets like you, USMC or not, who try to lord the fact that they served over others who want to contribute to military-related discussions.
- stirfrykitty 8y agoYou're entitled to your opinion, but not your own facts. I know weapon systems like my own hand. If you don't, then everything you offer is simply an opinion, not a fact. And, in my OPINION, civilian control of the military is one of the reasons we haven't won a war since WWII.
- leroy_masochist 8y ago> in my OPINION, civilian control of the military is one of the reasons we haven't won a war since WWII So....you're saying that we should be ruled by a military junta? You're aware that civilians have controlled the US military for as long as the US has been an independent country, right?
