Hmm...been in for 15, never had that lesson. What I have learned is that:

A: When people don't listen to reality, people die, and
B: People that beat their chest about being in the military generally didn't accomplish much.

If it helps, I'm not an "old dog." I'm not even a football official. I'm learning the rules so if I decide to make the plunge, I know what I'm doing (or are less unknowing of what I'm doing.)
