Overlooked by most in Obama's relentless efforts to "remake" America has been his ongoing and dangerous transformation of our military. ...What I want to speak to is his administration's systematic destruction of the 200+ year-old culture of the U.S. military. This "multicultural makeover," happening right before our eyes, threatens to undermine the very fabric of our armed forces. The forced acceptance of open homosexuality and the burgeoning hostility toward Christianity; the gratuitous degradation of our troops (e.g., forcing ROTC cadets to march in red high heels to experience what it's like to be a woman; making male soldiers wear simulated lactation devices, or lecturing them on "white privilege," dare I go on?); the "full-court press" to make our forces more diverse, most alarmingly by opening up combat positions (even special forces) to female soldiers; and the relentless purging from the ranks of dozens of fine general officers whose only "offense" was their failure to "get with the program" -- all of this, ... the objective being that of a complete and irreversible cultural transformation.
One of those leading the charge in the radical mutation of our military culture is Secretary of the Navy, Ray Mabus.
When the Marine Corps leadership produced a study making unequivocally clear that all-male units performed significantly better than mixed-gender units, Mabus would have none of it. He "savaged officials who ran the study, accusing them of bias and not wanting women to succeed."
-- Mabus is also supported the elimination of that loathsome word "man" from all job titles in the U.S. Navy. There are 21 job titles in the Navy which include the word "man" (e.g., "fireman"), and Navy officials were to report to Mabus by 1 April on what was to be done to efface such "sexist" titles from the vernacular of Navy.

Bump.
Would Trump fix this?
They move from one victory to the next. We are on constant defense losing consistently.
“Would Trump fix this?”
________________________________
Good question. He’s repeatedly said he’d rebuild our military to far beyond its current state.
But he also came out on the wrong site of the North Carolina queer bathroom issue.
That’s what I was thinking. I don’t know if he ever made comments on women in combat.
“....his administration’s systematic destruction of the 200+ year-old culture of the U.S. military.”
.
The military does not seem to mind their systematic destruction.
Agree 100%. Social engineering in our military should be identified as direct assault.
I know lots of active and former members who are ticked off about the engineering and its effects on cohesion and performance. It’s ignored or praised in the press. Men don’t need to march in high heels, they need to shoot straight and focus on the mission.
Quite right. And, I would add, be able to carry 200+lbs at a quick pace on rough terrain in stressful situations. The list certainly goes on.
He will fix it!! Trump has already indicated exactly what he will do and who he trusts. -—Duncan Hunter-—(r. USMC) and that gives me confidence that he is the right man for Commander in Chief. If you are concerned about the US military and the direction that it is headed, the second article below is a must read.
Today Donald J. Trump is announcing that DUNCAN HUNTER and Chris Collins will serve as co-chairs of his campaign’s U.S. House Leadership Committee. Congressmen Hunter and Collins will lead outreach efforts to their fellows Members of Congress in support of Mr. Trump’s message to Make America Great Again.
Mr. Trump stated, “Congressman Hunter and Congressman Collins are conservative stalwarts. I am honored to have the support of these two well respected Members of Congress who share my vision of securing our borders, strengthening our military, treating our veterans with the respect and care they deserve and putting Americans first again.”

Smokescreen on the Potomac: Pentagon and Congress deliberately ignoring $36 million USMC study
US Defense Watch ^ | April 19, 2016 | Ray Starmann
The United States of America is in mortal jeopardy and most Americans, tucked away in their beds tonight don’t even understand why or who is responsible for their peril.
Those responsible are not from North Korea, China, Iran, Russia or ISIS. They are Department of Defense bureaucrats, members of Congress and senior leaders in the US military.
The US military is committing suicide.....
Except for Senator John McCain and Congressman DUNCAN HUNTER, who felt the Pentagon was deliberately dodging the results of the study, not one member of Congress, the Secretary of Defense, the Secretary of the Navy, the Secretary of the Army, the former Chairman of the Joint Chiefs, the former US Army Chief of Staff and the current US Army Chief of Staff, completely and unequivocally wanted nothing to do with the study and ensured that it was ignored.
http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-bloggers/3422768/posts
From the same study, continued...
The US military is committing suicide. We are in the first stages of beginning a process that is going to decimate the speed, lethality and combat power of the Marines and the US Army combat arms and special operations. The US military is doing this because of policies directed by the White House and authorized by willing lackeys in the Pentagon and in Congress.
A Congress short on military veterans and long on wind and incompetence said nothing as the April 1, 2016, deadline passed for them to review Secretary of Defense Ash Carter’s authorization which allows women to serve in direct ground combat units.
Yet, Congress had a plethora of information presented to them which clearly indicated that women cannot function and survive in US Army and US Marine Corps combat arms and special operations units; aka, infantry, armor, armored cavalry, artillery, the Marine Raiders, NAVY SEALs, Delta Force, the Rangers and the Green Berets.
Let’s be clear; women have served gallantly in harm’s way in all American conflicts and particularly in the recent Iraq and Afghanistan Wars.
But, serving in a transportation unit that comes under fire is not the same as being in a direct ground combat unit with the sole mission of finding, fixing and killing the enemy. Returning fire when your convoy is shot at in Iraq is not the same as being in an armored cavalry unit conducting a movement to contact against an enemy force. Being a firefighter or a police officer is not the same as being a combat infantryman.
Included in the vast array of information available to the Pentagon and the Congress was the $36 million dollar, 9 month long Ground Combat Element Integrated Task Force (GCEITF) Study the Marines conducted in 2014 that pitted all male units against coed units in a myriad of combat tasks that simulated what one faces in the combat arms and special ops.
The study was monitored by neutral researchers from the University of Pittsburgh.....

Everyone ignoring the study by Duncan Hunter & mcCain.
TRump puts Hunter in leadership position already.
Look at this family— Duncan Hunter I retired - 14 X Congressman and father of DH2. Staunch support of the traditional -normal-military. Sponsored the Border-Fence-Act (passed but never funded.) Stopped the Dubai Ports threat to our security that GWB was set to implement in 2006.
TRump is a true Patriot and will reverse course, restore America and especially the US military.
Hunter is a true Patriot who served 2 tours in Iraq & 1 in Afghanistan (USMC). And he has the guts to say what is not being spoken to Congress. Sponsored the Bill to withdraw certain federal funding for sanctuary cities that has passed in the House. https://hunter.house.gov/about-me
I just heard an interview of DH2 on the radio. He is for Trump but says he’ll go with anybody against Hillary.
