Possibly in this case the "average, or below-average Joe Schmoe"
wasn't "flying around in fighters in *any* service branch" but
was instead humping a pack through a load of mud in a hot climate with

Any Joe Schmoe can do that. You've got to be distinctly above average to
get to fly 102'es for the Texas National Guard.
