The Corps is too filled with leaders obsessed with rules and regulations who don't actually care about their guys so you don't get guys like this. The good ones get out or go MARSOC. The MARSOC and Recon senior NCOs and officers I met were just like this. Quality people are only in the special operations units these days.

I'm pretty sure they learn that at the academy or ocs. Believe it or not there are still courses for proper behavior and what not for officers. And when you spend 20 plus years you have to laugh at less peoples jokes. I just wonder if jocko has red stripes, doesn't seem like it though.

many sailors noted that their leadership is “distracted, captive to bureaucratic excess, and rewarded for the successful execution of administrative functions rather than their skills as a warfighter.” 94 % to be exact

[@ChatGPT1111]

Yep and I’ve seen many of them do the exact same thing when they move to civilian coroporate leadership, particularly those that have government contracts. They often get high paying director level positions without even having any prior experience in the technical area they are given control over. This destroys morale of everyone under them.
