a person who has never been a social worker could probably write a convincing story about a social worker, but a person who has never been a quantum physicist is not going to write a convincing novel about quantum physicists. my point is that the military is a lot more complicated than you think, and presents an enormous challenge to the uninitiated.

and before you go all greentext crazy with shit like
>comparing soldiers to quantum physicists

yes, I know you liberal college kids think we're all the dumb jocks that used to beat you up in high school, but nope. the army in particular has scientists, lawyers, etc. with their own branches/corps within the army, and those soldiers are smarter than you will ever be.

fun fact: more US military personnel have college degrees per capita than US civilians

SHIT NIGGERS, THIS SHOULDN'T BE THAT HARD
