Thanks; I'll pass your wishes onto my offspring (although they're in another industry), and for the record, I didn't need to 'go through ... previous posts', you stand out as ........ (Insert as appropriate, don't wanna get personal, it could all be good though).
Back to the point ,.... Question side-stepped .... but what I think you are saying is that you are senior enough not to need to be selfish on your own behalf ? So to rephrase, are you aiming to be 'selfish by proxy' on behalf of the rest of us! My point is that your, (and others), attitude to the Cadets is, in my opinion, ( Humble omitted ) Selfish. You can't disown the comments by saying "us", they're yours, and to follow up some of your remarks with, "I'm sure they're very nice people" is a bit like calling someone a Prat then saying "No offence"...(No offence)
