Double Zero
Thread drift, I know
As for Edward, I can only feel sorry for whatever poor sod was told to look after him joining the Marines !
Hadn't anyone told him flower-arranging is not considered a martial art ?
The military life is not for everyone.
An aside, would you be capable of successfully getting your green lid?
I for one thought that Edward made a brave call when he threw his hand in - he could
possibly have scraped through by hiding behind his family name..... at the very least he could have made life very ackward for the training staff who may have had to decide to chop him.
He made his very public decision, despite the knowledge that it would be widely reported. Sometimes it takes a bigger man to admit that they are just not up to the job.
