[QUOTE="Planter, post: 15097492, member: 101620"] You're probably right about if I had spent some more time in the military I might have a different viewpoint, definitely something I lack here. I just know how hard it is to advance a career in the military especially at the officer level from seeing friends and family run into roadblocks in their careers, so I guess I have a lot of respect for those who achieve such a rank. They were able to stand apart from others to get there and they did put in tremendous amounts of hard work, and perhaps some had a little luck and being in the right spot at the right time or got a favor from the good ole buddy system over someone else. I'm saddened by the whole thing really. This guy throws away a distinguished career and his retirement, a trooper is senselessly killed, and a baby girl gets to grow up without her mama and a husband loses the love of his life. Trying to wrap my head around the whole thing and I can't. It's just all around a really bad situation involving 2 people who did a lot of good in their lives and made sacrifices for their country...for it to end up like this just royally sucks. [/QUOTE]
