I'm sorry, but as a guy who wore the uniform for a quarter century and with kids who are currently wearing the uniform, I'm not comfortable having someone lead the Department of Defense who has never served in any branch of the Armed Forces.

Would we have someone run the Department of Justice who never practiced law, or NIH who never practiced medicine, or education who never instructed a student (assuming we should even have a DOE)?

As a veteran too, I couldn’t agree more, DeckHand.
