Initial Officer Selection

[Ulenspiegel]

SOMEBODY will find out. There's always opposition, to everything. Especially inside the bureaucracy.
They WILL use lame complaints like stupid Reichswehr analogies and myths.

Just look at the "Kriegsnah ausbilden" drama. Politicians hardly read it, but somebody read it and launched the PC complaint campaign.


We can propose smart yet non-PC stuff as outsiders or at least with protection of anonymity, but even a simple memo in the bureaucracy itself would be a powder keg.

OK, the Bundeswehr had officer schools for the first 18 years, then switch to the university system. So I am optimistic that the political issues could be solved when the wheel is re-invented.
