PRAISE YAKUB

I resigned my commission a few months ago. Instead of a Thank You for almost 40 years in the reserves, I was told that I will be forced back if there is a conflict. Skin colour is a totally useless predictor of ability or intelligence - culture is what counts. I spent most of my time in the SOF and the military attache branch. Very few racial minorities there but those that wanted to be there were top notch. East Europeans being way above average in terms of abilities. But female reserve officers (mostly civil servants from some ministry) were created and given a rank that I worked for for years. They could lift a pencil like any man can but the rest of soldiering? Nada.
