The US military is waaayyy too top heavy anyway.
Bears repeating.
As a 22-year vet, it’s TIME TO FIRE ABOUT 75% of the generals. ALL THEY WANT TO DO IS CHANGE THE UNIFORMS OF THE USAF. FUNNY, THE USMC STILL HAS THE SAME CLASS A UNIFORM AS IT has HAD SINCE 1910, and the USAF, WHILE i WAS IN, CHANGED WORK AND FLIGHT UNIFORMS EVERY NEW GENERAL OF THE USAF. DUMP THEM TO MAKE GENERAL ALL YOU DID WAS BECOME A PLITICAN WITH ZERO LEADERSHIP SKILLS. THE USAF HAS ERY FEW Generals OF THE CALABRE OF Kurt Lemay A REAL LEADER THINK I AM WRONG WATCH AND PAY ATTENTON AT Pearl Harbor Dec 7 1941 AIRCRAFT WERE PARKED WING TIP TO WING TIP WE NOW ITS 2025 AN GUESS WHAT THE usaf STILL PARKS THAT WAY???...
At the end of World War II, the United States military had one flag officer for every 6,000 troops; today, there is one flag officer for every 1,200 troops.
