Right on target. I spent 25 years in the Army and 10 years as a defense contractor. I was fired from my position when I refused to endorse a $500 million computer simulation that was a piece of crap. A full colonel had already endorsed it and I wasn't a "team player". I finally gave it all up because I couldn't stand the snakes anymore. I'm much happier now.

I salute you and I admire your integrity. Anyone with the rank of colonel or higher is nothing but a politician...
