Secretary of Defense James Mattis has ordered a full review of any military training not directly relevant to warfighting.
Mattis told the services to conduct a review of the requirements for mandatory force training that does not directly support core tasks, according to a Friday memo obtained by Military Times.
In other words, Mattis wants a full examination of all the hours of burdensome, irrelevant training service members have to undergo before deployment.

The Clinton Impeachment should have focused on his Abuse Of Power, in promoting an asexual agenda in the Military. That was a million-fold more serious than having a girl service him in the oval office.
Clinton was not impeached for having sex with Monica, or anyone else. Clinton was impeached for perjury.

Pretty cool piece of personal trivia.
I had the boyhood dream of owning one of those WW2 subs when I grew up.
Lord only knows the trouble I would have gotten into with it.

Does this mean without him saying so that all training telling young white men they are all racist, rapist, bigot, homophobes is on the chopping block?
I certainly hope so. They have been pilloried enough.

I hope they junk the requirement for breastfeeding females training for combat to have portable lactation units brought to the field so they can breast pump during training. I wish I were making this up.

Ha! There's one up in New Jersey you probably get real cheap but getting it out of the mud would probably break the bank.

I don’t know.
Pappy Boyington watched Chinese laborers float a fighter plane off the bottom of a river using nothing but bamboo.
Take a lot of Chinese AND bamboo to get that thing floating again.
Another childhood dream up in smoke.
A shame that thing is sitting there rusting away.
A thing of beauty and they have torpedoes too!

I hear there’s already a special level of hell for the bastard who created that damned IA security CBT—the one where you have to go through every module and click on every element! It’s right next to the SARC’s office...

Yeah...the person or persons who created that should be shot. I just re-did mine earlier this month and made a note that I retire next year and only have to do it one more time.
I'm Air Force, but work for the Army...and it was that I used to have to take it TWICE! because the systems didn't talk to each other!
It is basically a cartoon...and made for a 10-year-old. It drives me crazy because I can't believe we take a CBT that treats me like I'm in grade school.
