Throughout recorded history during periods of relative peace, armed forces tend to be led by the politically adroit and well connected officers who are in tune with their political masters rather than virile, aggressive warriors. If you look at the Joint Chiefs of Staff, it functions as little more than any other Federal bureaucracy and can hardly be called a nest of warriors. Nice uniforms and pageantry but really a politically correct place at its core. If the US were faced with an existential war against Russia or China, our military leadership may be lacking.
