[Non-Sequitur]

What a nasty, snide thing to say. I salute this gentleman for serving his country. None of us was born knowing everything, and this process sounds very confusing. At least he had the good sense to ask for help.

Remind me to explain the concept of a 'joke' to you sometime.

Sorry, I did not realize it was a joke. Had I been able to see your face as you said it I would have understood that it was humor. (I am a woman, so maybe I had my hissy girl sensors out; usually women don’t crack on other women — to their faces, at least — unless they know them. Men, OTOH, say all sorts of outrageous things to each other, and no one is offended. One of the many things that I admire about guys.)
