Talk:Diplomatic service

This should be entitled "Foreign Service", to make clear that it is the elite service composed of the best and the brightest - those few individuals who passed the Oral Exam and are entrusted with carrying out the foreign policy of our National Leaders. To suggest that it is part of the civil service is an affront to the professional FSOs serving on the front lines.
