I was with you Mark, till you mentioned you contacted the guys Commanding Officer...
...Leave a mans employer out of the deal. It really irks me when people do that...
As a 20 year vet I can tell you Mark's action here is totally approppriate. Militery personnel are and should be held to a higher standard than someone who flips burgers.
I can't think of one reason why military should be held to 'a higher standard' than civilians.
That said, I'm no longer interested in what transpired so many years ago.
