Correction does much, but encouragement does more. -Johann Wolfgang von Goethe | ''Correction does much, but encouragement does more.'' -Johann Wolfgang von Goethe | ||
It is a common mistake for a Fleet Commander to allow mistakes to pass uncorrected; and a worse mistake for a Fleet Commander to hammer a pilot publicly. The first one causes other pilots to notice that following orders and keeping a tight fleet isn't that important - it causes everyone to get more slack, and allows a sharp opponent to pick you off. | It is a common mistake for a Fleet Commander to allow mistakes to pass uncorrected; and a worse mistake for a Fleet Commander to hammer a pilot publicly.
