Bureaucrats just can't help being total assholes: http://ca.news.yahoo.com/pmo-nixes-danger-pay-cut-soldiers-afghanistan-162741193.html
But they try so hard and they never give up.

A fair number of people from right around here got killed or messed up over there.
As if I need to remember why I was unhappy in the army.  They are relentless.
The treatment of returned soldiers is unforgivable.

I'm reading up on the Crimean War right now. Tough to see how the Brits could have bungled things more.

They could have sent their guys to Korea instead of Crimea.  When I was little I used to brag that my dad fought in the Crimean War.
