You are correct, he is not any of those things. He IS an Air Force Lt. Col., and I don't care if folks love or hate his videos. I have no opinion either way. I do respect his service.PocketGroove wrote: He's no Seal. He's not Delta. He's not even close to being an Army Ranger. He's not even a cop, and is he's hardly an American hero. But, the guy has shot a lot under conditions you haven't, and he does some solid internet reviews of gear that's interesting to me, and apparently a lot of others, regardless of whether his style suits you or not. Check his reviews out if you have a purchase on the horizon. They are better than most.
I do, however, have an opinion of support troops. Not everyone is a front line combat soldier. Whether you believe it is 3 to 1, 5 to 1, or 7 to one, it takes a vast number of those troops to support the combat soldier. The front line troops must be supplied with food, ammo, fuel, equipment, medical, finance, etc. Those support troops train in their specialty, and only receive BASIC combat training and arms qualification because that is not their primary role. Front line troops are supported by land, sea, and air, and if it not for that support, the overall mission would likely fail. Everyone who wears the uniform serves, regardless of their role, and deserve our collective and individual respect.
