Serf,
And on that we do agree - it is sad but true. I have always been educated in the forces to look after those under you, earn respect, lead - but I now get the feeling that I am reading a pre-WWII training manual in a Mr Chumley Warner accent and those professional ideals and associated ethos has long gone.
Is it really everyman for himself thses days? One thing that the military has always been over civvie street is selfless - (not selfish!) - selfless. Times are changing I fear.
