Yeah sadly I do know what you mean. But I know a couple of Brigade commanders that wouldn't care if it was pale blue as long as it would go towards keeping their units from being deactivated.

Deactivation is a sad thing. After my Change Of Command, the new COC decided to merge my unit into a larger one. They did it for the deployment and it made perfect sense but it will be nearly impossible to stand it up again upon return. My replacement got the short stick because he went from Company command to Plt leader in the change.
