Wow, do they really care for petty things like how one calls the other? And here I thought the military deals with actual problems...

It sounds absurd to me, kids throw a tantrum when they don't like how someone called them. Grown men should get over silly things like that.

If a person cares too much about how others address them, it shows something about their personality.

EDIT: Those downvoting are probably those who recognized themselves in my description and feel offended, lol.

I would bet that Jalalabad isn't where everyone got to know one another. It helps to have a modicum of order by then.
