He was talking about how understaffed the State Department is. He was referring to the new hire of foreign service officers and the foreign service exam.
He compared it to the military failing to have any new junior officers in the chain. AND he DEFINITELY said "for several years in the 1990's."
SLAM! Go Colin!!

I like this guy. I disagree with him at times (I think he made a serious mistake when he blacklisted the AUC freedom fighters in Colombia), but he's a good guy.
