lol...it's all good...is there knowledge you don't need?Knowledge is like money: to be of value it must circulate, and in circulating it can increase in quantity and, hopefully, in value.

Re: Do not go into Killeen. You will be sorry.
He has no CHL yet so that requirement is not relevant...under MPA, don't mention it until asked about it.
That being said, what if the OP were to reverse the roles they played? What if the officer commenced to tell our veteran how what he did the day he sustained his injuries where what got him hurt? Maybe the officer's criticism might be accurate but it is probably irrelevant as the OP was acting per his doctrine and training at the time. If I was the OP, I would have been agitated at this officer critiquing actions he has no experience with. Hindsight in combat is a good thing but training and doctrine are what rules at the time.
The officer had a job to do and I would hazard a guess that he get's more agitation than cooperation as a general rule.
Maybe we can all back up, shake hands and agree to disagree...we have to share the finite space available to us on this planet with everyone else.
Another 2 cents worth from RogueUSMC adjusted for inflation...
