The Marine Corps, the smallest U.S. military force, has plans for a big overhaul designed to address its lack of diversity and problem with retaining troops.
The goal that's driving what amounts to a cultural shift within the service, is for the Marines "to reflect America, to reflect the society we come from," Gen. David Berger, commandant of the Marine Corps, said in an interview with NPR's Morning Edition.
It's not a matter of being politically correct or "woke," he said.
The core of America's strength lies in its diversity, Berger said, adding that the same is true for the military.
"Our advantage militarily is on top of our shoulders," he said. "It's not actually our equipment. We are better than anybody else, primarily because we don't all think exactly alike. We didn't come from the same backgrounds."
His new plan, titled Talent Management 2030, outlines measures the Corps will implement to boost recruitment and improve career flexibility. About 75% of troops leave the Marine Corps at the end of their four-year term, the highest turnover rate among the military services.

The enemy is Christians and Christianity.
This Army veteran, who’s brother is a Force Recon Marine, retired; wants the Marines to be the baddest Mofo’s in the military. Marines are supposed to be the ass-kickers.
Pathetic. Whoever the next POTUS is, if we ever get a non-Dim again, better fire all these leftist cucks.
For me it was Brute Krulak.
Looking for a few good men?
Guess not anymore.
“… address its lack of diversity and problem with retaining troops.…”
Any connections with recent decisions?
“The core of America’s strength lies in its diversity”
Which is why our enemies fear our musical theatre.
The Few, and the 𝑷𝒓𝒐𝒖𝒅 is going to have a whole new meaning.
Kinda like that patriotic 95% of the FBI....they don't exist either....
I thought their job was to defend, not to reflect.
From the Halls of Montezuma, to the Shores of Gender Neutrality…
Space Force is smaller. Get with the program.
What happened to the goal of winning wars?
Discispline, honor, duty is what use to matter to the Marines along with God, family and country.
Reflecting society was never fully embrassed because of all of it's problems.
I guess they can change their name from the Marine Corps to the Woke Corps?
That started under Obunghole. He tried to get as many combat experienced/straight officers (flag officers) booted as fast as he could to replace them with what is there today.
what’s their pronouns ping!
Another woke sh!thead that need to have 4 stars stripped from him.
“His new plan, titled Talent Management 2030” OK, Gen. Berger. That’s just a little bit gay.
Amen.
