Comp Charlie,
Thanks for your post. Gave an insight that many of us needed to put things into perspective.
I agree with and understand the points you made, and realise that you post as the messenger, not the policy maker.
I think it's just the fact that having gone through an OOA det and now back home, the troops perceive this bureaucracy as another thing to screw them around. SAC mover on the desk or SO2 is an easy target for their frustration.
Again, a good post. Have PM'd you on a separate matter
Regards
