Fix West Point?

"The Bateman", as he is known in some circles, Army Lieutenant Colonel Robert Bateman, offers up a comparison of West Point and ROTC.  The venue is the blog maintained by former Washington Post Reporter Tom Ricks.

I think it raises some interesting issues, and West Point, the US Military Academy, being one of our national institutions, deserves our attention.

  Reserve Officer Training Corps, or Rot Crops, the source of large numbers of officers for the Army, Navy, Air Force and Marine Corps.  This is the formalization of the military tactics training requirement of the Morrell Act of 1861.

Please be forthright, but please consider that this is not a barracks.
