In a 2015 memo by the Secretary of the Army to worldwide Army Commands, the Secretary dictated that Commanders and soldiers will balance lactation support and readiness.
In response, Colonel (Ret.) Fred Dibella, USMA Class of 69 and former TAC of Company F2 at West Point wrote:
Ok, Ive had all I can stomach. Im done.
Scroll down and read this crap right now, if you think Im kidding, then come back to my remarks, if you havent puked your guts out. (USMA 69 forum, feel free to permanently ban me from your rolls, but Ive had enough.)
Obama and his lackeys have now systematically laid the groundwork to accomplish what no battlefield enemy has ever done; that is, to emasculate the United States Military. I honestly dont know how he could have done it more effectively. Hes dangerously downsized the force; hes rooted out warriors like Stan McChrystal and Carter Ham from the General and Flag Officer ranks and installed puppets like George Casey and Martin Dempsey; he not only obliterated Dont ask, Dont tell; he searched long and hard to find an openly gay (and utterly unqualified) man to be Secretary of the Army; he opened not just combat arms to women, but the absolute tips of the spear in Infantry, Armor and Artillery, and the predictable result is directives like balance lactation support and readiness?
Seriously? SERIOUSLY??? Balance lactation support and readiness!?
Sorry, Im old school, but I THOUGHT READINESS WAS NEVER, EVER COMPROMISED let alone for lactation support.
Have we gone completely mad?!? Do you think for a moment that the greatest fighting force the planet has ever known is immune to emasculation? That theres nothing that Obama can do to significantly degrade its lethality? That somehow we will magically prevail, despite all this crap?
Heres the blunt truth, and if you think this flies in the face of political correctness and/or liberal theology congratulations.
The most important reason the U.S. Military has been so dominant, so lethal, and so unbeatable over that last 200 years is that we subscribe to a Warrior Ethos. Were not quite Sparta, but we aint been far behind. That is, until now. Up to now, we have recognized the blatantly obvious: That battles and wars are won by Alpha Males. And why is that? Uh because men and women may well be equal in the eyes of God, but they damned sure aint identical in the laws of physics and psychology. Men are, by and large, bigger, stronger, faster, more aggressive, more violent, more ferocious, more intense, more powerful, more brutal, more belligerent, more destructive, AND THEREFORE MORE LETHAL than women.
You dont buy that? Tell you what pick 50 men at random from anywhere and 50 women. Put em in a big ring and tell em to fight to the death. Have a problem immediately predicting the outcome? If you do, I cant help you. Youre an idiot or a flaming liberal who believes that Laura Croft, Tomb Raider is real.
Why do you think Martin Dempsey, Obamas personal lackey in uniform, issued his famous proclamation? You know the one: If women cant pass the standards at Ranger school, SEAL school, and other similar training programs, then the standards will have to be justified to me.
God help me, but am I the only one who sees through that bull? I guess the Rangers at Point du Hoc werent good enough, huh Martin? Neither were the SEALS at Benghazi? I guess Deltas incredible successes are not sufficient. We must reassess the standards. Total crock of ----. Scrape away the BS, and heres the residue: Were gonna lower the bar till the women can get over it, period. Think thatll have any effect on lethality? BTW, howd you like to be the Ranger School Commandant who goes to Massa Dempseys office to splain why women aint makin it? Think he might avoid that by adjusting things a bit?
But its more than physicality. Its about the laws of nature. That is, when young men and women are put together they respond to hormones rather than good order and discipline. 1976: Women are introduced to West Point. Regulations strictly prohibited fraternization among cadets. Hahahahahahaha. Written by some idiot, no doubt. They were bangin each other like rabbits. Trust me, I had a ringside seat. But that wouldnt happen in a Ranger squad, or a SEAL team, right? If you said, Right, then youre an idiot. The squad/team leader is messin around with a female and theres no degradation to good order and discipline, right? The previous Brotherhood that formerly bonded warriors together wont be affected, right?
So we now have a female Commandant of Cadets at West Point. See how freaking enlightened we are? We can appoint females to the leadership roles at the nations premier School for Warriors. That is, the nations FORMER premier School for Warriors. West Point is now the tip of the Political Correctness spear. We have gay marriages at the cadet chapel, we have kindness and compassion seminars, we even have Sensitivity Officers on cadet staffs - right next to the Operations and Logistics Officers - to ensure that Alpha Males do not behave like Alpha Males. We dumb em down now. We used to understand that good warriors were a little rough around the edges. We tolerated that, because we knew em for what they were Patton comes immediately to mind. Instead, now we intentionally extract the fangs from the sheepdogs, just about the time when the wolves from Islam are stalking the flock
Obama gave us Obamacare, which is now sinking under its own sick formula. Good thing, because the gutless Republicans couldnt bring themselves to defund it. Obama has given us Sotomayor and Kagan, two flaming Liberals who will sit on that bench for a generation of Looney Tunes. Obama has demonstrated his racism, his socialism, his disdain for law enforcement and even his proclivity for Islam (the peaceful religion what a laugh). Hes been the single most divisive and destructive POTUS in my lifetime. America, thanks to him, is at war with itself. GOP vs Crats, Blacks vs Whites, Haves vs Have-nots, Women vs Men, Armed vs Unarmed, you name the category we have two sides at war with each other.
The debt is approaching $20 Trillion. Thats such a ridiculous number that even economists cant fathom it. More than half of it generated on Obamas personal watch. We have no national border. None. Agents have been defanged, and the illegal aliens come across at will. The problems in Arizona and Texas are ignored by Obama. Israel has gone from being our most trusted and respected ally in the Mideast to being openly discredited, condemned and insulted by him. The nuclear deal with Iran was and is a joke. Un-vetted Syrian male refugees well hell, come to America! Its all so transparent. You elect an utterly totally unqualified candidate with dangerous background affiliations in his past, and this is what you get: a self-inflicted wound.
But it all pales, in my humble world, to his destruction of the American Military. These are the guardians of our way of life. These are the warriors. These are the rough MEN who allow us to sleep soundly, because they stand ready in the night to visit violence on those who would do us harm. But go ahead, America: let this ideologue continue the systematic defanging of our fighting force. Let him feminize it. Let him drag it into the political correctness cesspool. Let him continue the social engineering and tinkering. Keep putting high heel shoes on male cadets, so they can empathize. Forget all our hard-fought lessons at Khe Sanh, the Chosin Reservoir, Bastogne, Belleau Wood, Gettysburg, and Bunker Hill. Let the idiots tell you that war is push button now, so anyone can be a warrior.
Go ahead
Historians wont have a difficult time analyzing this disintegration. We were just too timid to put a stop to the madness
Col. Fred Dibella, U.S. Army (Ret.)
Thank you for posting this e-mail.
Col. Fred Dibella should be appointed either Secretary of the Army or Secretary of Defense by a future President Trump.
Most Excellent!!!
All things that needed to be said. I might add that the weakening of our military is another point where Trump can hit Hillary. Our enemies grow bolder as we grow weaker. It won’t be long before they’re venturing into the firelight to snap at our heels. In fact, it’s already happening. When some mud-hutter in Yemen can fire missiles at US warships without Yemen becoming a parking lot, there’s something wrong.
I thought it might be illuminating and appreciated, even as it infuriates at the same time.
I feel like I’m living inside a bad Woody Allen movie.......

Well said. Too bad it’s so very true.
It is yet another reason to support Donald J. Trump over Hillary for sure.
Thank you for posting this! It’s one of the rare posts I’m going to share with Mr. Megan!
It’s possible many Americans born and bred in a vidio age picture themselves as the main character in an ongoing blockbuster movie which just has to have a happy ending after a lot of entertaining explosions and plot twists. All they have to do is eat popcorn and try to guess which minor characters get killed off in the process. But the bad guys and dangers all seem unreal and easily shrugged off.
You'll need to be more specific. They're all bad.
Didn’t DACOWITS also conclude that in a strength test between 100 male recruits and 100 female recruits, that the ten strongest women were only as strong as the ten weakest men?
He called it “The fundamental transformation of America”, and they elected him twice.
We’ve been in an eight year battle to retake our country, and we’ve been losing for eight years. Time to step up the effort, or it won’t end well.

Obama and the progressive globalist democrats don’t care. They’re picking a fight with Russia and I think they plan on losing an Aircraft carrier or two before capitulating.
