...you're really digging into this nothing.

It's almost like you don't want to talk about the point Lawrence was making about Glenn..

It's as if you want to distract from that.

You insinuate that he got other things wrong, other than this hair-slitting quibble over classification, but you haven't bothered in any of these several posts to make a case against the other things you've cast aspersions against him for.

And you claimed he was just a Marine, basically denying his service in the Navy, which Lawrence admittedly muddled.

You were also inaccurate. Just own it. It doesn't negate any of the points he made.
