Next thing you know, they'll be commissioning NCOs.


Why?


Why not? If a warrant officer can be a commissioned officer, so can

I notice that they're calling him "sir" these days. That used to get
you 20 push-ups in the U.S. Army.


Where did you get *that* from?


A commissioned non-commissioned officer! That would be army-think at
its finest.

But really no more foolish than a commissioned warrant officer--a
warrant, after all, being by definition something less than a
commission.


Gee, I guess we should have frozen military development about forty years
ago, huh? Would that have made you happier?
