I wont argue with you as your argument is personal apparently. I will say I spent a hell of a lot more time overseas in my active duty days than I would have preferred, but it came with the job. I didn't whine about it, and I hope your son handled it like a man better than you did. If he chose to get out I have no problem with that. My respects to him for his service.

Apparently you don't hold the same standard for this "cry-baby" complainer, if there indeed really is one. How come you don't advise him to suck it up because it's part of the job, instead of bad-mouthing his commander-in-chief?

I didn’t hear any bad mouthing of the CiC. What I heard was shame for letting partners down due to decisions beyond his control. Solders are not robots. They have a conscious and you should be glad they do.
