Well, since at the time he was 47 and she was 19, I’m hopeful his reaction today is more along the line of “Wow, I still got it...but, no.”

Addendum: since the vast majority of those reading this aren’t going to be familiar with military culture and just how far reaching the powers of a dysfunctional chain of command can be compared to civilian bosses, this awful story popped up on my twitter feed yesterday.

I’m with you on The Postman being halfway decent. Incidentally, both it and the For Love of the Game adaptations were actually were quite a bit better than their source material.

Yes and no. If this route remains available, I could easily envision a scenario where command could resolve her UCMJ violation with 10 seconds of verbal counseling, while his would be referred to another courts martial seeking involuntary separation and another BCD.

...came the Albigensians/Cathars. In the 13th century, the Catholic Church was so “secure in its own power” that it launched a Crusade against southern France.

I’m going to visit my grandfather’s grave after I attend the Memorial Day remembrance at his cemetery. While it’s not on his death certificate, aftereffects from his war service were largely what killed him a few years later.

I’d still very much consider that red. Just more the natural-progression-as-you-get-older red rather than what you have through your early 20s, especially since you weren’t a copper to begin with.
