Well, pardon me, but I was trying to figure out the purpose of the story, thus “Huh?”

If one just reads the excerpt, it does not go into details about Johnson’s complaining about the length of his service.

Now, based upon reading the story further and others comments I think I understand better.

Okie Dokie?

Cheers mate — no offense intended! I wondered what part of my comment you hadn’t understood, so I could explain myself better. Now I understand that your “Huh?” was directed at the story — it’s not obvious from the excerpt what’s going on.

I think this young fellow is making a big mistake arguing his case in the media. Even if he manages to pressure the Navy into letting him go (or maybe even Obama?) he will lose alot of Respect from alot of folk for not doing this the right way.

I suspect he won’t be the first shirker to try and fail to wiggle out of his Navy commitments, and he probably won’t be the last.
