Officer Retention

[Norfolk]

Great post and well said. I knew the Royal Army was in trouble, I didn't know the Canadian Army was also having issues. Is it simply OPTEMPO or does it have the "disconnect" issues being dealt with by the US Army?

In a word, both. Plus the fact that the Army had already burnt itself out in 10 years of non-stop ops in the Balkans leading up to A-Stan. The Army was not a shell in 2001, it was a husk.
