This is a piece originally written in July 2018 not long after I left the Army and 6 months into running SEG full time as a civilian. I think I still agree with most of it.
I enjoyed reading this - a very well balanced appraisal of the civpop / military relationahip. The observation that the military tribe is actually a sub-tribe of the civilian one is an important point which will sit uncomfortably with many - but this does not make it any less true.
This is one of those articles that will be as true in 20years as it is today.

Cheers dude. I was more licked out with some veteran behaviour then when I wrote it, than I am now, but pretty sure I still agree with most of it.
