The NCO class in the P.I. military is worthless-I read it in a book by Robert D. Kaplan. Something about grunts in the book title. The NCO is the backbone of the US military. Committed career guys. The P.I. officer core is corrupt and the enlisted folk have no reason to commit to anything

Bummer. They fought like hell against the Japanese. Are the Koreans. + Vietnamese willing to come to their aid? They’ll have their hands full.

Yes...you refer to Kaplan’s book “Imperial Grunts”.

Many people resent having to work with the USA. Working with Communist China is going to be a lot worse, but they have to find that out for themselves.
