Bullies in general or specific bullying via undermining people, I have never liked in any walk of life. Now, we definitely can’t be sure whether Bugler Mason actually really dislikes/likes Rear Admiral Knowles or not? Whether his banter towards him is genuinely trying to regularly undermine him on-air, or just a bit of harmless fun between the two of them. What we DO know is that the Colonel has appeared regularly here, under his own name, and actively taken comments about suggested improvements on board. These include those vile price and disingenuous comparisons. Now…potentially doing that wouldn’t endear him or anyone else doing similar, to the old ‘big guns’ in a small armoury relics, happily going with the existing system. I hope we are seeing something that actually isn’t really there in this. But nonetheless - I don’t pick up a good vibe from it.
