Did you hear our Secretary for War address an unsmiling conventicle of Generals, and Admirals? He told them, no more DEI, no more "dudes in dresses," no more wokery nonsense, just common sense. Check it out:
He's not in favor of the jelly roll either, is this a problem? Senior officers were notoriously silent. What, too fat to fight?

IMHO, he's ON the money...
I was hoping for "Everyone, look under your chair. There's a number. Evens you stay, odds you're gone." Or something like that.
The eneMedia said Destructor Pete's hollering was a letdown and 'soft.' Boy, they're still pushing that leftist agenda, aren't they?
800 flag officers sitting and taking orders from a former enlisted man. Warms my cold heart. I do agree with him.
I can see the reactions now:
CNN: White male cisgender Hegseth, an anti-body positive tyrant, shames our brave generals.
MSNBC: Racist Hegseth wants our troops to be leaner and meaner so they can kill more colored folk.
Fox News: What MSNBC said.
Pope Leo: America is cruel to immigrants and fat generals.
If the left is throwing a hissy fit over it, it surely can't be all bad.
Banzai, y'all.
Beans, Hegseth was never enlisted. Thing is he was a Reserve Officer and was forced out, at Major, under Biden because of his "Deus vult" tattoo. I remember a complaint by an Army Officer, who had a Regular Commission, decades ago about Reserve Officers. Still, I am sure that those Generals/Flag Officers (O-7 to O-10) were not happy about being lectured to by a former Reserve Major (O-4). Hegseth has got more balls and better Leadership than at least 50% of those Stars out in the audience.
Right with you, NFO.
Beans, hasn't the combat strength of our armed forces declined as general ranks increased?
On topic: I asked my eldest, now a sergeant in the Signals, expeditionary, if his unit was trained to resist an attack by enemy forces. He said, "No, we're not."
You'd think what's going on in the Ukraine would be a lesson. Huh.
WSF, heh.
What accurate reporting, Infidel!
Right on, Wild. Over the target, eh?
Ritchie, I concur.
"Hegseth has got more balls and better Leadership than at least 50% of those Stars out in the audience."
I'm no expert but Bill, but I call right on.
Why are there so many moar generals now and less fighting capability, seemingly? Not unlike the Church of England, when you think on it.
Every one in uniform should be able to meet a minimal qualification of 'rifleman.' Even sailors and airmen and guardians. In a uniform? Gotta be able to shoot.
There are no true 'non-combat' roles anymore.
Never said anything about Hegseth being enlisted. And, yes, a Reserve Officer.
I have great respect for Reserve Officers, my dad being one of them (he was so good at his job that they wanted to commission him. The 'selling point' for them was promotion to Lt. Colonel and 2 years in DC at the Pentagon. Dad took a liaison job and retirement rather than going to DC...)
As to leaders with balls, Obama and Biden pretty much finished those off.
