The ones at DC desk jobs should be most suspect.
We’ve already seen the vast majority of Fed.gov GS-15 and higher is on team Davos, NOT on team USA.
How much does that also apply to the military?
I wonder how many fatso lefties resigned today
Not enough.
Is there an age adjust standard for older officers?
Looking at the thick bodies in reserve units, they could trim off a few thousand lbs per unit easy.
There should be another element to the ask: if you don’t resign now, and we later discover that you should have resigned, due to your support for woke policies, you will be fired and also sanctioned in the following ways: _____ e.g. demotion, dishonorable discharge, loss of pension, etc.
.
Expectations have been made clear. Those who think they can carry on as they have will now be held to account.
He laid down the law. Wonder how many are going to retire today?
That GI that defected to the Norks not so long ago should have been offered the chance to complete his enlistment in Liberia on a private’s pay. If he got into trouble there he could end up eating fish heads in jail.
My bro in law retired Master Guns. As a Staff Sergeant he ran marathons. He ran the noon fat farm for Marines who did not pass the physical standards. You’re overweight; go report to Sgt. R.
I’ve sat through a lot of “all hands on deck” meetings like this. Boss struts around feeling important, people turn to each other and ask “are you going to do anything he’s saying?” and laugh and go back to what they were doing.
I’m waiting for the inevitable comment about him saying the word ‘sh*t’.
Yeah, civilians think that. There’s something called the chain of command and the UCMJ that typically put a stop to people thinking they can outlast the commander.
The speech was great. The difference to the prior Secretary is as Night compared to Day. We are now in the light! I would sign up again but, at 85, I am sure I’m over the age limit.
You all can count on Secretary Hegseth to continue his plan to square up the Military and change the direction in which our Forces were heading.
Only if the democrats gain total control it’s their main goal.
Until then it’s only a movie
Hegseth is quite aware of what you are talking about, so you should give him a "standing O" for what he is about. Do you agree?
Grandfather used to carry the flag in parades until, as his obituary described:
“He was a soldier, too, in two wars because he liked it. He served in the Spanish American War and in World War I and was thoroughly disgusted when, at the age of 78, he was unable to enlist in the armed services in 1942.”
Seems that a lot of retired soldiers carry expertise that could be well used to free up younger soldiers during stressful times.
