Nearly all company grade combat arms officers are familiar with the phrase "then I got stuck in TRADOC for a while." They are similarly familiar with the reaction it usually elicits-a shudder and a look of pity. That a position instructing the planet's premier land force is generally accepted as pitiable is, in and of itself, quite pitiable.
