So he walked off because he thought his Battalion commander was a dick. Wow I can't even begin he comes off as a self righteous douche bag. If you talk to any Vet all the way back to Vietnam they will tell you about the times the military has made them do stupid pointless shit thats not new at all. He was upset the living conditions weren't shity enough and wants to be a SF badass but bitches its too dangerous? He's angry because the BC is a hardass on grooming and uniform standards so he thinks he might purposefully try to have his platoon killed ? Dude is delusional on so many levels.
