I was a soldier locked in an officer's body trying to break out of the everything that I saw was wrong about being an officer, where rank was status, and a "mandatory professional distance" was defined by pomp and circumstance spelled out by arcane traditions and rediculous unwritten rules of conduct that hindered good performance of the soldier and sound leadership by those appointed to ensure that the soldier succeeded.
