Cliche from start to finish

This story says more about the current parlous state of US culture than it does about exploring the future.
The story is plodding and predictable with nothing new to say. The characters are one dimensional and could be cardboard cut-outs of other stories in this millieau.
The author sets his story in mid 2200s and has some strange idea that society and culture has not progressed from the current American obsession with the worship of "so called"warrior ethic, which is superficial at best and just plain pathetic. The author has not even considered current military traditions from other cultures. It may come as some surprise to Americans, but there are other ways of doing things and US marines are not some sort of supermen to be emulated.
More seriously this lack of imagaination or even critical thinking feeds into the emerging Fascist culture taking over the media and infecting people with a lack of thinking power within the USA.
This performance by Mark Boyett was excellent, as I have come expect.
