Never heard of prior enlisted?

Yes I have and if he was USAF I wouldn't have batted an eye lash, but a 38
year
old Marine Infantry Company Commander seems unlikely to me.

In 1991 I was 36 years old. And I did serve four years as an enlisted Marine on
sea duty and in the 8th Marine regiment.

I haven't seen much from you to show your background. You don't seem to know
much about command responsibility, that's for sure, or they teach it
differently in the Air Force.

As I indicated, it was nice to hear the editors of the Military Times say
pretty much what I said.
I'm playing golf
tommorow with a Paris Island D.I., I'll ask how many prior service guys they
have running infantry companies. Then I'll ask if he ever ran into one on the
verge of retirement.


Ask him about limited duty officers. I worked for two: Captain Howard
Lovingood and Captain Walter Peoples.
