 The rest of the characters don't seem like leader-material. They're either loose cannons or rookies

YAY I DON'T HAVE TO BEAT YOU ALL INTO SHAPE FOR ONCE!

My character is pretty good at following orders, actually, as she was a Special Forces soldier, and a damn good one at that. Generally speaking, you don't get to be in the best of the best if you don't play well with others, or do what you're told xD
"He never follows orders, and he keeps arguing with all the CO's. He's impossible to work with, I'm not even sure why he joined the Army, if he has such an authority problem"
"MY GOD, he's perfect for our elite unit!"
"...what the hell is wrong with you?" 
"I'm trying to get fired."
