I do like the ideas of basic soldier skills being required for promotion .... when I was in , the most improtant requirements for lower enlistment promotions was "what race/ethnic group are you" ....there was an EEO quota to fill...... funny how that only worked one way,though .... 40+ guys in the platoon and I was one of four that could not be counted in one "minority" or another......
