You make a good point, but it isn't the enlisted's fault. It's the command's fault. From the division command up through the Joint Chiefs, it's all political. Wars sometimes change that to a degree, but this last one has lasted so long, it's practically on auto-pilot. So, they're constantly jockeying for positions of power. In the days of yore, officers were fighters not politicians.

The soundtrack of collapse is the multitude arguing over whom is at fault.
