ine. Those were the conditions in which you existed and served your
country. But you have certainly suggested, as far as I can tell, that
people that served in other periods, when the choice was necessary,
somehow were less than honorable by being instructors without combat
experience. If the choice was as

have described, you insult them.


Absolutely not. I just suggested (or asked) if the students were getting less
by not getting a combat experienced instructor. We would have gotten less if
our instructors had no combat experience. What is your feeling for an
instructor? Combat experience or none?
