Agreed. 100%.

Good military men (not all; but the good ones) take care of their troops first. I knew some company commanders that would not eat until the last soldier was through the chow line (when deployed; if the solider sleeps in in his barracks, that is his problem ). I knew of commanders that would work the Christmas Eve duty shift so a SGT or other NCO could be home with his family.

This swanky party where 83% of executives got a bonus equal to nearly half a year's pay for a front line person is despicable. The executives are the ones making up the moronic polices; the front liners are the poor stiffs who have to follow them.
