But then I married a navy nurse and worked alongside a former OCS officer for years and developed respect for them generally for their service and their demonstrated worth.

They ridiculed others as a manifestation of their own insecurity. They never quite measured up as leaders and never garnered the respect of peers or subordinates. <br />As I mentioned earlier, my classmate who was awarded the Medal of Honor did not excel academically, like Patton, but nevertheless was one of the most distinguished graduates of West Point. <br />Fuck ups are not measured by a grade or class ranking but rather how they conduct themselves.<br />5:03Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7566778230970156239.post-80309012041093856972009-11-19T09:07:36.413-06:002009-11-19T09:07:36.413-06:00The plebes that were fuck ups and made it through ...<i>The plebes that were fuck ups and made it through the 1st year at The Academy tended to become the pettiest of the upper classmen and the poorest leaders.</i><br /><br />You mean like Patton? He also had a poor academic record and was considered a fuck up. Yet you seem to be the petty one. I wonder if you ever served in combat? You speak of others who did, but something tells me you just served at one of the low points in our military's history, and probably contributed to it. <br /><br />And again, I've never seen him throw his experiences around and like I said, from what I remember it was only brought up in response to a bunch of whiny DA's who wore their "service" on their sleeve in order to show that he too has served in his own way. And on top of that, it sounds like in more ways than you! I bet you did your four and out.<br /><br />Anyway, I'm sure your poor judgment manifests itself (and in turn poorly represents your alma mater) in many other ways. <br /><br />If you were as honorable as you claim, you'd put a name to those insults. But I'm sure that would expose you as a flunkie or a liar.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7566778230970156239.post-91659877187904436022009-11-19T08:55:02.824-06:002009-11-19T08:55:02.824-06:00Anon 5:56,

He was automatically accepted to The Academy based on that sacrifice. Although he struggled academically he never made excuses or threw the medal around. His humble strength of character set an example for most of us. To listen to all the bravado of the make believe warriors with no combat experience was vile in comparison. <br />After graduation most of these type soldiers positioned their 5 year commitment to the least risk possible. <br />Over the many years I have found that the truest of veteran heroes live as they led rather than talk of war's grandiosity.<br />It was a great privilege and honor to have graduated from the Academy and poor judgment to have engaged Rage just because his petty bravado was reminiscent of the plebe fuck ups from years past.<br />5:03Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7566778230970156239.post-12547184265412604792009-11-19T08:43:17.896-06:002009-11-19T08:43:17.896-06:00Rage: You don't think Defendants deserve a fa...Rage: You don't think Defendants deserve a fair trial?<br /><br />5:03: VMI SUCKS!!!<br /><br />Other anonymous ADA's: Excellent rebuttal 5:03!!!<br /><br /><br />No wonder convictions are tanking in Harris County.
