Interesting insight into high level Army politics, but the real news I see here is that the Army is retiring all of his Kiowa scout helicopters and can't afford to replace them, and also that it is cannibalizing the National Guard for Apaches.

McMaster long looked like the classic Army maverick who did well on the battlefield …

Too often good combat soldiers make poor peacetime soldiers. Generally they are more concerned with doing the job and not interested in politics.

"...the Army’s aviation center at Fort Rucker, Alabama, the central temple to which all Army helicopter personnel return again and again throughout their careers".

“....the plan also calls for stripping the Army National Guard of all its AH-64 Apache attack helicopters. The two moves together leave the Guard with no combat helicopters — only transports”

Anybody else think this is more than a bit coincidental. Ever more concentration of combat power to the regulars.

It is almost like they are planning something.
Ah,nah. Forget I said anything.
