As one public servant to another, thank you for putting your experience out there for the world. The average person never sees behind the curtain, and right now I think they need to.
Godspeed on what’s next, and I look forward to posts on national security and your stupendously weird taste in art.

They spend a pretty considerable time teaching officers and SNCOs that their career (and possible freedom) are over if one of your Marines kills a civilian.
They’re not perfect, but the people in charge usually want to do good things.
