Ok fine, you win. Just let me know when the officer corps
give you a letter of commendation for your courage and bravery for
defending their honour. Or justification for them to slack and not
use critical thinking and use their "me is occifer, therefore me is
right" attitude.
My statements are based on what i see on the field, which i
spend 2 years of my glorious youth, with kids from various
upbringing and education struggling to cope with the job they do
not want. i also saw officers who are too dumb to make decisions
yet rolled their eyes when the platoon sergeant or section
commanders try to help him to make it. I saw my PC insisting on a
frontal assault in spite of the comments of my PS, that the
situation has changed and he could not follow as per planned
before. The result is 75% casualty for my platoon.. And we havent
even breached the wire. Not bad considering its TES and i get to
lie down and rest instead of doing leap and bounds. I hear
grumblings of soldiers when the leadership makes mistakes, and
waste their time and energy doing things twice or thrice. Yet the
same people entrusted with this leadership do not have the moral
courage to even apologise for their errors.
Oops, sorry my words means nothing to you cause you lead a desk
of pencils and pens. Yeah, you guess it, i have a chip on my
shoulder. And it wont get any smaller considering the same idiot PC
is still my PC in reservist.
Nah, the real tragedy is why the military decision makers didnt
make you an officer, you obvious have all the data you need to
decide who is best and who is not.
Not hijacking the thread anymore, its an RSAF thread for god
sake.
Thanks for your lengthy insight into your experience with a bad
occifer.
Please refer to this posted before. Same Shit.: And make no
mistake, there are many officers, both regulars and NSF. Few are
educated (by my standards). I don't even feel majority of them
exhibit good leadership skills, but it just sucks balls that these
shitty officers are often the same majority in the officer corp who
aren't educated.
