I may be wrong, but I don't recall a single Admiral complaining about the Secretary or for that matter an Air Force General. Seems like the whiners are from the Army and Marines and unless I'm mistaken again, isn't the Secretary's reorganization building upon the Air Force and Navy assets and decreasing the importance of the boots on the ground services? 

BTW for any grunts sharpening their flame sticks, I'm not denigrating either the Army or Corps.

As a sometime Air Force officer, I can tell you that what the AF prizes in its officers is uncritical enthusiasm for the program, whatever the program may be, including the exact opposite of yesterday's program. Principled objections and resignations-in-protest just aren't going to happen in the well-winnowed-out top grades.
