AF Academy finished

"Seven 20- and 21-year-old cadets were ticketed by police for drinking
alcohol in an off-campus hotel room early Saturday with two young
women, aged 16 and 18. "

As far as I'm concerned, the AF Academy has failed it's mission, and the
tax dollars should be shifted to the Army and Naval Academies. There is
no reason for it's further existence.

Horrors! College kids actually drinking and pairing off with the
opposite sex? What is this world coming to?

Bull****. Do you really think that there is no drinking and whoring
going on at the Army and Navy Academies?

Yea. Never mind. You're right. What the hell, it's free money anyway,
and the public can kiss their ass.

The Navy hasn't forgotten....the problem is the Air Force didn't learn from
the Navy. I guess every service has to go through it so the Marines should
be due in about 4 years. The USAFA chain of command should be hauled onto a
base for public flogging. Idiots. And these are supposed to be our
"brightest and most talented". So much for 0fficers being "more educated".

These were the officers who rose through the ranks in the 80's when the military
had to take what they could get. The ranks were decimated by the public apathy,
and poor pay. I think they are still running the place like a university, and the
result will be more of the same. They have lost their pride, and their distinction.
Today, I would no more hire an Academy graduate, than a convicted thief.

Agree to a point. It's lack of discipline. Too many commanders can't do
anything without their lawyers present to make sure they won't get sued.

Young cadets and airman can get away with more now than before without being
disciplined so that's what you get.

Too many lawyers and politics in the military today.

While we're being regularly presented with these dismal details on the
national news (something like 20% victimized in a "sexual assault," an
amazing number of rapes), I'd like to know what they're using as the
operative definition of the crimes.

Some policitically correct definition no doubt. We've been through all
this before. In other words, forget the AFA because if an all out war
breaks out somewhere...

Without lawyers there is no rule of law. Besides, the lawyers raped no one.
Keep you eye on the ball.
