You're the one who said that protecting the lives of the people under your command wasn't part of your job description, so I didn't take anything out of context.
Maybe it's just an Army thing. I wouldn't know. I was in the Corps where it was drummed into us that protecting the lives of those under our command was indeed our responsibility.
Of course accomplishing the mission came first, but you bet your sweet ass that the Marine Corps sure as hell didn't promote people who wasted the lives of those they were in charge of.
If any Noncom in the Corps uttered the drivel you wrote, he would have instantly been relieved of duty.
Noncoms with attitudes like yours lead to fragging. Normally I'm against it, but in your case.....

Again you have twisted my words.
I never advocated wasting lives. I merely told you what a commanders job is and I included minimizing loss of life a a consideration. Maybe for dims like yourself I should elevate that to a primary consideration.
You are angry with my position so you nit pick at words.
Ooh fragging, wow, I'm scared. Do you even know how to operate a grenade?
Do you actually have an argument to counter my opinion, or did you learn debate from Jerry Springer?
