I disagree. The military should focus on winning wars on the battlefield. They should not be distracted by other concerns. Period.

And, any general worth his salt will always struggle to get more money into anything that will increase his battlefield advantage. So, when he went before Congress begging for DOD money, he’d have most of it weapons and training. He’d gradually sharpen his arguments to have former military getting less and less. That’s what he SHOULD be doing if his focus really is on winning wars on the battlefield.

Of course, if we don’t want him to focus on winning, we should just say so. Please, General Hogsnap, please focus on transsexual surgery, or please focus on LGBT issues, or please focus on religious infiltration. Please forego all those battlefield concerns and let’s be a hospital former military and a change agent for society.
