I know things have changed, but what happened to leading from the front? |
I'm not being sarcastic or condescending when I type this, but I'm not really sure what you're trying to say. Could you try to clarify the point a bit more. Right now it reads to me like you're saying the officers are cowards and hiding in a bunker instead of on the line.
