An enlisted officer?
A reader points out this howler from the Washington Post.
A Jan. 23 article about former Abu Ghraib prison guard Megan Ambuhl should have said that a noncommissioned officer gave Ambuhl her first tour of the Iraq prison. The story article said that "an enlisted officer" gave her the tour.
Yeah, it's not like there are any former military the Post could hire who settle in Northern Virginia, Norfolk, and Fairfax County or anything.
By the way, this is Josh White. White actually writes a lot of stories about the military, lately. How in God's name he got that assignment I'll never know. He's obviously incompetent to do it.
Editors, how many veterans do you have in your newsroom?
