I beg your pardon; is it true that there are courses in military academies that provoke racism in the ranks? I was challenged twice, when my superior officers discriminated against me because I was not an academy graduate. One such personality even suggested that my life as a commissioned officer in the U.S. Army was a non-starter because I would encounter problems engineering and reengineering solutions. He suggested the only academy graduate had the capacity to handle such situations. Another superior officer claimed that OCS was a poor source of commissioning and that only West Point graduates are true leaders in the Army. Does the U.S. Military Academy at West Point instill such hatred in cadets towards other commissioning sources? It needs a deep inspection.

MAJ Dale E. Wilson, Ph.D., imagine that. OCS is a great commissioning source and talent emerging from OCS have already set the Bar of Excellence very high, since these officers are prior service professionals. Being biased or jealous in the same fabric due to commissioning sources is not in the best national interests. This, I feel, is a facade for something even uglier than bias or hatred.

PFC (Join to see), bias or hatred is a facade for something more cynical I believe.
