It sounds like you have no idea what you're talking about. First you come onto a thread trying to pass yourself off as the offspring of a flag officer. Maybe you didn't out and out say it, but I have a feeling you were try to "bend it" in your favor.
The TRUTH is, that it is NOT appropriate to "bend it". You cannot go through a military career picking and choosing when you will be completely forthcoming, and when you will hold back information. That doesn't get much support from the US public (who we work for), and it certainly won't help youi gain ANY trust from your superiors or subordinates.
Frankly having read your posts, at this point I have a feeling I know where you hold your honor (a word I doubt has much meaning to you). Now you may say that I don't KNOW you, and this is true, but at this point I think you might want to find greener pastures.
You're not even in a US Armed forces uniform, whether that be black, blue or green and you're claiming that military officers must be bent. That is not what a service academy is looking for out of applicants, nor is it what I'm looking for, as a tax payer, out of the future officers in the Greatest Military in the world.
No it is NOT appropriate to bend the truth for your own benefit. You are wrong.
