It didn't make sense for them to be in a fighter pilot role then a couple of episodes later storming a base.

I'm sorry, but that is the most retarded thing I have every seen the Marine Corp do...Even worse than the Army taking the headgear that distinguished their special forces from the rest of the soldiers and letting everyone wear it...

I didn't understand why they would waste training on making someone into a grunt and into a fighter pilot. You should be one or the other and not both. That would take too long to do in a war situation especially if you are trying to save the planet. But I also liked the disorganized feel because things would fall apart a bit if the bad guys were to hit certain areas first.Organization and logistics would get lost. It happened to the Russians when they fought the Finnish army and lost in the 1930s.
