Whew, let’s take a step back here from the vbss microscope for a second. No problem whatsoever with people asking questions about mission areas or capabilities they don’t know. It’s awesome that people show interest across community lines for their own edification.
Now, from a broader perspective, my frustration stems from people on the outside telling HSC to basically sit in the Starboard D, color, and be happy with their lot in life (NAVAIR actual made comments quite similar to this at an NHA flag panel, no less), and those same people saying that while not even knowing a basic range of capabilities the community provides. I’m not even talking about a “failure of imagination.”
Again, basic questions about a particular set in order to gain clarification/edification is great. Shoehorning an entire community into a small corner (without support for that, as well) and not taking any measurable interest in what they’re tasked with doing is not great.
