I agree. Likely Pete has figured out that he is being undermined by wokies.

Someone on TV today said that it’s team building / Franklin-Covey training. 😆

You are mistaken if you believe he will deliver a stern warning. Some may enter as top line officers but exit as Court Marshals....

DOD should review the emails of all of these officers - as well as any publicly available social media accounts - since the order to assemble was issued. I’m sure it will reveal few dozen of them not on the team and actively resisting…Then fire them.

Government pension should be put at risk.
Future employment in the private sector on government contracts should be at risk.

Be non-political. Or risk all future income.
Perhaps your family will starve. Because you decided to play politics while wearing the uniform.

I anticipate the meeting will include some immediate changes to the magnets on the org chart, along with a RIF at the Pentagon - related to the old saw of when you have more admirals than ships ...

If you cannot do all of this, I will be in Room 101 down the hall. Form an orderly line outside in the hallway, and I will invite you in one by one to tender your resignation.

If I've heard correctly, upon reaching general/admiral rank, an officer submits their resignation letter, signed but undated. They can, at any time, have this letter dated and and countersigned by appropriate authority and they are out.

This may no longer be the case, or was a 'story' I heard. In any case, I suspect there will be TWO meetings, one for the come-to-Jesus, and the other for a short speech and open your envelopes now. Buh-bye.

Yep, it’s time the generals find out who is their boss. This was the problem with Milley and the rest.

While I believe the wokies will be called out, I also believe this has something to do with NATO and the war in Ukraine.

Well, to gather a bunch of big-wig generals and admirals all together means it must be important, but since it’s still several days away it must not be urgent.

That is also my assumption. But it seems odd that the meeting is not being held at the Pentagon.

Mr. GG2 thinks its to talk to them about the possibility of impending martial law due to the volatility in the country and the fact that that the European central bank is warning citizens to carry cash and here in the US Bank of America hadn’t made its shorts payments in 8 months according to Kitco. Hence the rise in gold and silver. He also thinks its strange that this meeting is being held in Quantico.

My opinion is both sides to the Ukraine war will not negotiate a peace. Both sides include European countries pushing Ukraine and China pushing Russia. So what is the meeting about, maybe the possible escalation of the war to include nuclear weapons.

Did any of you know that in February of this year someone's drone hit the Chernobyl Nuclear Power Plant's New Safe Confinement structure. Of course each side blames the other side. So this looks like a potential escalation already!

“Privates understand the chain of command. Some of you do not. If that is you—if you see yourself as somehow wiser or superior to your constitutionally elected leaders and their lawful orders—you need to start thinking like privates.”

I vividly remember one of the first things I was shown upon being assigned a barracks at Great Lakes Naval Training Center was the yuge sign on the wall listing my chain of command. I was to learn it.

While on fire watch, my immediate supervisors would appear out of nowhere and quiz me on the chain of command.

Sep 30th is the date government shuts down if they don’t vote to kick the can down the road, again.

To me, .gov shutdown sparks civil mayhem, our bloated military may have to restore order….and those not willing to follow President Trump’s orders, will have to be dismissed….fact is, it is anyone’s guess.

Never fear. We will learn what the meeting was about within 30 seconds after it ends and the officers have been given access to their electronic devices. They will report to their contacts in the press and in Congress. Schumer and Adam Schiff will let us know promptly. With their own peculiar spin.
