Learning how to write the Air Force way

These are the participation trophy generation who end up in "leadership" positions in the military, government, and industry who have no idea what leadership actually is.

You can't fool the junior enlisted. Just sit back and look at who they respect. It's not the major punching his ticket on his way to command or the staff nco more concerned with appearances than actual readiness and welfare of the troops. It's the unpromotable 1LT or CPT who is getting the f$ck out as soon as possible. It's the Sgt willing to overlook or ignore orders that make life suck for his guys.

And it's all because society has allowed participation trophy people in positions of authority because of their background and connections rather than their aptitude. Of *course* he'll make a good leader - he went to an Ivy League and was battalion CO of his ROTC unit, so he must be smart and worthy - ignoring that he's a socialist who got into an ivy league because his parents went the Aunt Becky route to get him in.
