What the fuck was this guy's problem?

What the fuck was this guy's problem?

He was too patriotic

since when is loving your country a problem? fucking libtard.

The real life members of the platoon that were advisors were butthurt about the guy and so they made him out to be worse than he was.

his tracers were not followed

He was a glory hound

>he doesn't believe there were/are people exactly like Captain America in the US armed forces

Why did Godfather refer to himself in the third person?

Personally I have no doubt there are, but this guy was nowhere near as incompetent as he's shown to be. But a story needs a villain and the only info on him came from guys who hated him, so there you go.

>he didn't watch the making of videos where even the guys in the platoon openly say he wasn't all that bad and try to cover their tracks
Whether there were or weren't across the board is irrelevant, the point is that this guy was portrayed worse than the reality, like the guy from the Alan Turing movie who got turned into the antagonist and has his name shit on because he disagreed with Turing once and otherwise worked well with him

He did nothing wrong

He browsed Cred Forums too often

Didn't browse Cred Forums enough

WE'RE TALKING ABOUT 100 QUACKS

>a spic, a coon and a fucking wigger
What did he mean by this?

>implying Encino Man wasn't the villain

>denying the enemy transportation
>stockpiling emergency AK's (never know when you'll need one)
>seizing republican guard colours to later be used to set up an ambush against them
>bayoneting the bigass camel spider next to the captured Iraqis head that was about to bite him
>alerting your men to the dangers of dogs as an IED delivery system
>always assuming you're surrounded to maintain constant, maximum vigilance.

That dead weight Iceman could have learned a thing or two about soldiering from this guy, they didn't call him Captain America for nothing

you forgot marking enemy vehicles with tracer fire for his men, who wouldn't have seen them otherwise.

He meant that "colloquial" behaviour isn't bound to any particular race.

He was a typical officer looking to prove himself, the problem with these guys is because of their rank, other people get dragged along with their stupid ideas. Officers are always doing shit like calling in CAS on some insignificant threat just so they can write themselves up in the AAR and get medals

Neither were villains, that's the point.

Is calling in air support something of note in the [US] army?

He even had to specifically tell those fuckups to follow them. Felt sorry for him, surrounded by retards.

Except for that one operator as fuck guy who taped his humvee window so he could use his laptop. Tactical as fuck.

Air suport is extremely expensive and resource-intensive, so you shouldn't be calling it in for flippant reasons.

No I mean you said "so they can write themselves up in the AAR"

How do you write yourself up by calling a completely unnecessary air support for no reason?

Easy if you're the one writing the report

Because you make it seem to the higher ups that you're doing shit that makes a difference and using the assets available to destroy threats.

All those years at military academy and then having to work that shitty job in Alaska

they (Captain Americas) abuse the air force's willingness to help achieve targets.

I see

It's funny how almost every "realistic" war movie/show has that theme of incompetent officers (Band of Brotherswith Sobel and that guy in Bastogne, Generation Kill with Godfather, Encino man and Captain America and TTRL with whoever the fuck the commanding officer is), is it as common as I'm led to believe?

Godfather wasn't really incompetent, he was just a bit out of touch what was actually happening because of the retardiation of Encino man.

In the case of Sobel he was a great trainer but couldn't deal with the fact that he wasn't cut out to be on the field which lead to his downfall.

The power structure of not being able to say or do anything if someone higher than you is fucking up would always lead to these kind of situations.

Didnt follow the grooming standard

>that scene where he pretended to not know what danger close is and spoke the wrong grids over the radio to confuse possible enemy eavesdroppers and cover for Captain Patterson's real fire mission.

Of course his men were too retarded to realize this and actually thought he was calling in danger close at 200 meters. Fucking idiots.

He isn't mentioned much in Nate Fick's book (more about what a retard Encino Man is), but there's a few mentions in Evan Wright's book about how Captain America isn't wired too tightly.

Nearly as bad as those morons who couldn't see the tactical necessity of blowing up all that evil sand
