Just found this place today at work, cool stuff. Really cool stuff.
One thing that I saw mentioned briefly in the episode discussion that I feel is kinda important is that when Brock is assigned to Dr. Venture, he is sort of an outcast in OSI and is probably some what of a disgrace as well. But when we see Brock in present day, he is revered. I'm absolutely dying to know what happens between Brock's "Rusty's Blanket" assignment and his triumph that so raises his esteem in the eyes of his peers. I'm guessing his loyalty to Rusty and the boys comes out of this as well, as they obviously play a role in the story of him exposing (if that's the right word) the Guild (and probably Sgt. Hatred) and becoming a recognized hero. I also bet there are going to be some sweet action scenes and deaths to go along with part of the story.
I'd like to add how much I love that by giving us some answers, the Venture Bros. writers have given us so many more questions to ask.

Its not OSI that revere him its regular army guys mostly. The only reverence we've seen is from the Military guys guarding the mountain that Steve Sommers was on.
In fact he was criticized heavily for his methods when retaking his "License to Kill" exam and only got his license back because he used to babysit the tester.
And In "Tag Sale! Your it" it makes sense for him to be in charge because the security for the Tag Sale would fall under Operation: Rusty's Blanket.
You could even point at the fact that they sent him to kill Col. Gathers as more of a sign that they think little of him or that he's still to this day being punished for wasting OSI's time.

We've seen plenty of reverence from legitimate members of the Guild (Phantom Limb, Molotov Cocktease, the guy in "The Trial of the Monarch" who thanks him on behalf of the Guild for not getting involved).
I haven't seen "License to Kill" in ages, but he's still revered by the guy and his father, a General. I'll take a look when I get a chance and see how I feel about.
In "Tag Sale! Your it" the second in command who briefs everyone speaks very highly of Samson, which I didn't read as simply for show because Brock was running the operation.
When he's sent to kill Col. Gathers, the guy in the limo is obviously very impressed with him. The guys on the sub, I can't remember.
In the present, the only people we've seen disrespect him are people with clear personal grudges, like the head of the Secret Service at the White House. I think it's pretty clear that Samson has a much better image and reputation in the present then he has at the end of the flashback in "The Invisible Hand of Fate".

In a upcoming episode, thanks to footage from the season 3 teaser trailer, it looks like Brock is attempting to either get out of Operation: Rusty's Blanket or find out his status in OSI where he incorrectly gives the car computer the wrong info (Not his fault, the computer is just too formal) and the computer attempts to self destruct the car with him in it.

I Think OSI does trust him and respect him now. Obviously The Guild seems to be common knowledge now. In the trial of the Monarch they talk about how the police won't interfere with guild member if they follow the guild rules. If the Local police know about it then obviously the OSI does.
