Realize in war everyone in the platoon can't carry the guidon.
Everyone has a role.
Jone's role is to run interference while other are freed up to do work.
AJ is the bright shiny object to distract, confuse, and annoy the enemy.
He excels at doing just that…
AJ has been told what he can and can't talk about.
He basically says nothing about Q. Only Corsi can talk about Q.
That is because AJ was told to keep his mouth shut and let Corsi handle it.
Step back and look at the big picture, the people, the players, and the roles. All of this is by design.
