Yeah I know. It just boggles my mind that they have 20 year old E-5s and E-6s running around who have one or two tours under their belt. I remember even to be become an NCO you had to BNCO and then on to work your way up. Most of these kids as E-5 and E-6 barely had time to learn their field craft of their MOS let alone take the classes, train properly with their units before deployments and what not.... Maybe it just me.
Granted if a guy is promoted due leadership they have showed out in the field that is fine, but one thing I do remember is that you were usually one type of soldier. You were great garrison troop, or great with field craft aspect. It took time to become competent in both....
