Ok hero.


I am no hero, it's true. But as a current active duty sailor, I wouldn't want my commanding officer revealing the condition of my unit to the world and to those who want to kill me.

Ok if we're doing the whole qualifying thing, as a current active duty soldier I won't speak to the Navy's response but the HQDA's response has been mired in disorganization, indecisiveness and has been completely reactive in nature. Sounds like a commander who's focus was the welfare of his men and decided on a COA that was poorly thought out. Wouldn't classify that as "cowardice in the face of the enemy".

Please. If you're a sick as shite sailor with 99 of your stinky mates all crammed in the same sick bay together you wouldn't think twice to utter the words "frick you, Admiral, right in the Rear."

And good grief, I hope I had a Captain who gave a frick enough. This war game blah blah you're yapping about is nonsense. What submarine is chasing them, Denzel?

Are you stating if you were one or that you are one? I feel like yo tried to make this statement sound ambiguous on purpose
