I mean yeah, points for realism I guess.I mean, I know of at least 2 married couples that met while one was a student and the other an IP- one AF and one Navy.

Pretty sure they were both SELRES VTJ IPs.
Love finds a way.

Therefore female SMs in combat arms, however that gets defined, effectively have to meet male standards regardless of the current standard’s ultimate applicability to actual combat effectiveness.
I mean, what part of making everyone reinvent the wheel and creating useless administrivia within the first couple of months of taking command is deviating from typical FO behavior?Did he not ask his Flag Officers about this?

No, and this is another example of our SECDEF's Army Company Commander worldview.Did he not ask his Flag Officers about this?
At least as a company commander he couldn't hire his unqualified younger brother to work at his HQ, or have his wife sit in on sensitive meetings with fellow NATO company commanders, I'm guessing...Or not get fired for texting out upcoming attacks on the enemy.No, and this is another example of our SECDEF's Army Company Commander worldview.
