LOL. 'Major Rod', as usual, is FOS. He's yet to engage me in any substantive manner on any of my CAS points, nor ever pointed out any specific point where I was supposedly 'wrong'. We went at it at DoD Buzz once to the point 'Buzz' wasnt' letting me reply for some reason (see: http://elementsofpower.blogspot.com/2012/01/dodbuzz-debuzzed-with-major-tool.html) and another time he accused me of being 'racist' when I didn't even know he was (supposedly) 'Hispanic' (which I then pointed out was 'ethnicity', not 'race' and my family is probably more racially diverse than his but whatever).
I'm still waiting for one of these guys to actually either 1) effectively argue where I'm 'wrong' anywhere in my CAS histories or 2) Admit the reason thy take issue with the histories is because their fragile self-identity can't withstand the look in the mirror. I've often talked about the last heroic job in the military will be the 'doorkicker' infantry, but some of those guys have the worst case of 'WIDIMITWEED' (What I Do Is More Important Than What Everyone Else Does") on the planet: They have to maintain their self-delusion that ONLY they can win wars. Its not enough that in modern times that it is now shown to be 'most often' true. It's all or nothing with those guys. I've known some 'big brains' that came out of the Army, but the 'Major Rods' of the world aren't in the same league. The 'Major Rods' are not what you would call 'deep thinkers'. I may do another short CAS post soon. Maybe one or more of the Major Rods will take a shot at it if they find the intellectual 'huevos' to branch out of their co-counseling echo chambers.
