To much effort being spent looking for "loop holes"

Well why not suggest that the Secretary of Defense and Secretary of the Army do a 90day event where you allow servicemembers who are miserable to get out free and clear without followup and have them sign saying from this date the Army and military and gov't is not financially responsible for furture health, social, or financial issues.  If you did that I think you would be pleaseantly srprised at just how much dead weight would be dropped.  To caveat the attrition rate needs to be reintroduced.  If we are in an Army Profession why do we continue to 'test till they pass" mentality?  Some people are either no longer or are just not fit to remain or train in today's military.  Yet we allow ourselves to succomb to the message that all levels of personnel are trainable even to the minimum standard.  In turn we set the bar so low that the minimum standard is the "Tommy Boy Situation"  Way to go on that D+......  So now you have for instance a 70 percent(er) that only correctly repairs aircraft assumingly 70 percent of the time.  that sucks...  In order to alleviate loop holes and train professionals we need to endure some attrition and say "thanks for playing but you didnt make it..."  it is no different than 18CMF or ranger or airborne schools if you fail a test you retest and fail that you are removed the end of story no 3rd/4th/5th retests... Send a message to the top leaders "Hey if you want the best you have to uphold the standards and retain the best"  there is no incentive for a hard worker wh owatched his peers benefit without performing in the same manner...

This is from people losing pride in what we do in my opinion.

I fact that there are loop holes in the system and people exploit these loop holes just allows for more soldiers to realize them and use them as well. The issue I see is when it comes to dealing with a chapter on a soldier. There are certain things that needs to be done in order to chapter somebody and if one thing wasn't complete then they exploit that and allow for the process to be extended. The other issue is when a senior leader exploits a loop hole the lower level leader see this as well and does what their leaders do and eventually a lot of people are using these loop holes. We need to get back to the old ways of the Army, granted I have only been in 7 1/2 years but at the same time I have seen a lot of transition since I have been in. I don't always agree with these changes but we all have to take pride in everything we do and must understand all the changes and follow them with no short cuts.
