    Rant - Reservists CTing to Regs;don't be a douchbag

    Sometimes the Holy Grail of Uniformity takes precedence over everything else. The old ( Pre unification ) Military managed 3 ranks systems plus a slew of Regimental and Corps titles ... (Anyone remember when EME wanted to re-introduce "Craftsman" as the title for their trained PTE's?)
