during my 2nd tour in Vietnam, I was a Sgt. in charge of my platoon, an FNG stated that he was eager to get out into the bush so he could kill some "dinks", as soon as this was brought to my attention, I notified my LT., he called this FNG into his office and we read him the riot act, when he showed no remorse for his statements, I recommended he be transferred back stateside and the LT agreed.

He was gone by the next day.
Anyone with that attitude, I would stay as far away from them as possible.
