The United States military is suffering a recruitment crisis says Robert A. Green Jr., an active-duty commander in the United States Navy. “If I had a message for the American people, it would be this: The DoD (Department of Defense) cannot now be trusted with your sons and daughters,” Cmdr. Green warned.“The failures of the past 20 years will continue unless there is radical action to right the ship, rebuild trust by defending individual rights, and re-prioritize warfighting readiness,” he continued. “We need to clean house, particularly at the highest uniformed leadership positions.”
