Defense Secretary is a POLITICAL job. It is NOT a military job.
The military is for DEFENSE!
Get OUT of Syria and Afghanistan NOW! We have no business there any longer.
I see all those heroes on those commercials for “Wounded Warriors Project” etc. and my heart breaks for them. I think “for WHAT?”.
NO MORE NEED TO SACRIFICE ONE DROP OF BLOOD FOR SYRIA OR AFGHANISTAN or an arm or a leg or both arms or both legs or both arms and legs or an eye or both eyes or a face or a mind.
We should have turned Kabul into a glass parking lot and been done with it! (not too late)

The secretary of defense is in every service members chain of command. Yes a civilian but every part of the military as is the President.
