[Jammill Khursheed]

I'd mainly ago with what Geordie Bob says... Sounds like reason AND experience wrapped up in one as for how the system usually works...

But I'm assuming he was in OUR army, and not one run by a military dictatorship, and wouldn't have had the paranoid power-hungry emperor fearful of his own equally power-hungry generals and majors trying to wrest power for themselves...

Let's not forget, when the Libyan army turned against Gadaffi they weren't THAT much help because outside of his own family and tribal allies they were only left with small amounts of bullets/artillery/jet-fuel because he was always fearful that they would turn against him, or a general would lead coup, if they had enough ammunition to achieve anything...

So basically go with what he says in principal, but with a bit more intrigue and distrust amongst the ranks than you think you would actually need given the situation...
