"The Navy often is described as arrogant in its relations with other services." My guess is that Mr. Diamond has been retired for quite some time and is unaware of the 4,000+ Navy personnel currently serving on the ground in Iraq and Afghanistan as 'augmentees' to the Army and Marine Corps. These selfless men and women serve in critical positions that the other Services are unable fill. Arrogant? Not so much.
I received an email with this article contained in it, and the subject line was "Old Navy Fart Plays The China Card Against Joint Interoperability."
ReplyDeleteI resent that. I'm a young Navy fart.
Do you get AARP solicitations in the mail? If you do you are an old fart.
