What would /k/ think of a two tiered military culture?
Like a 'double standard' that formally distinguishes between a captain of infantry, and a captain of microsoft excel.
The excel guy could get paid more (because his skills are worth more), yet maintain a lower level of fitness, and discipline - being able to do his job and serve his country, without getting mocked all the time.
The rigid military hierarchy isn't appropriate in an office setting anyway.
Because the overweight guy reading the economist on the bus has a different uniform, the infantryman wouldn't need to mock him all the time to preserve his warrior pride.
There could actually be mutual respect between grunts and pogs. Thoughts?
Quit posting this shit thread and suck off a shotgun.
Nobody in the know will ever respect grunts.

If you haven't made your mind up after the first thread, you aren't going to.

Isn't that already existent? Fat-bodies are prevalent in military jobs where high technical skill is required (lack of willing volunteers with proper training forces undesirable fitness levels to be hired). I don't see the point in separate uniforms. Seems like unnecessary division in the ranks. People who hold guns are arrogant enough
quit posting this fucking thread, or at least take it to /pol/

Is this the new copypasta b8?
Just remove the crossed rifles from all non-combat MOS's rank insignias and I'm good. Corps used to have something similar to this in WW2 with POG's getting horizontal bars under their chevrons instead of rockers.

There is more ground that can be covered, I thought everyone here would like to have an intelligent conversation about the military but maybe not

Every other anon is saying this is bait, but honestly this is one of the reasons the .gov (to a lesser extent) and .mil have trouble attracting the best talent for important jobs (especially cyber).
The best and most knowledgeable cyber defense people don't want to wake up at 5AM every day to go do a company run and then spend most of the day doing bitch work while wearing a uniform and maintaining relatively strict grooming standards. And then not be able to smoke pot. Shit, I know of CS and CD guys currently working who won't take a private sector job if they even mention drug testing.
For intel it's a little more difficult. You need credibility which comes from time on the job. And an enlistment isn't enough (time on active duty as an officer isn't even enough). So you have to go .gov to get time under your belt to get credibility so you can then get out and work corporate or think tanks.
