I could see this one coming from a light year away. It was interesting reading Anton Myer's book Once An Eagle just as the Army was tearing itself apart in the post Vietnam draw down. I lived at most of the places mentioned in the book and watched as the Army closed ranks. It became painfully clear though as the years went by that the Army is an incredibly insular organization and the vast majority of Americans have no idea what is happening behind the wire at the arsenals, forts, camps and posts that remain.HMS Defianthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10024721130102173694noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7684531976778247960.post-9915913311092191662014-02-25T11:07:01.262-08:002014-02-25T11:07:01.262-08:00"So easy a caveman can do it."

Overemphasizing football at the expense of kids who are might be more qualified to be at West Point. I can't believe they're saying it out loud. (I have no idea what the Air Force Academy does. I'm sure it's similar. But instead of making stupid statements about football, the Air Force does other stupid things. At least that's how it feels lately!)<br /><br />Get the academies out of Division I. That would help.OldAFSargehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15935839956936191547noreply@blogger.com
