And even for him, his military experience is being stuck in an aircraft carrier as a sailor. How much has his stuck-in-an-aircraft-carrier experience translate to on-the-ground organizing? It really doesn't, certainly not enough that justifies the way many people make fools out of themselves by practically rolling out the red carpet for vets with almost no tactical^TM^ combat experience. Ball is cool for the other stuff he did. All his navy experience did was "introduced to an appreciation for reading and studying history," presumably because serving in an aircraft carrier that never goes to port is mind-numbingly boring.
