“I assume that the Obama rot runs deep in our military.”
As much disdain as I have for Obama, I can’t lay this one at his feet - we have been training Saudi Air Force pilots in the USA since the 1970’s.
Hell, I remember Iranian pilots trying out (F-15’s ?)at Andrews AFB in 1973 (?) before we sold them 200. Really some hot dog pilots. It was thrilling to watch.
