Checks. Many of them got shuffled through the ranks over the last decade, now that their sex won’t carry them as far some of them are getting upset. Same with African Americans. I would say this is the case with any current Trump policy. When you’ve gone so far off course as a nation (taxes, civilian workforce, DEI, transgenders, foreign aid, etc.), an abrupt bank back to centerline is going to seem extreme to those who benefit from said insane policies when all that’s happening is a course correction back to normalcy.

Good, clean kill. Sitting 0-6 Installation CC should know better. Would have felt the same if it was about Kaaamala.

To be fair there is nothing stopping MAJCOMs and subordinate units from establishing family days. I guess sucks for you if you’re in ACC with Wilsbach.

Yes, this, 100%, why we are still in a much better position today than this alternative.

None of which will happen until the AF and Navy achieve air and maritime dominance first respectively. Otherwise, sitting ducks without the logistics to get some Patriot batteries to their locations.

Honestly that’s a really weird relationship since the EUCOM CC is dual hatted. If it’s a 31 country alliance and the desire is to get other countries to step up, it would be better optics (regardless of views on NATO) for other countries to share leadership of the alliance. EUCOM does and will continue to do most of the work anyways!

Yepp I bet she’s a real peach to work with. Def had her as an “instructor” and she packs quite the punch.

Color me shocked. Another datapoint to put a nail in the coffin to racist and sexist affirmative action processes in our military. Save that for your Ivy leagues, no place for that in our business.

Holding Ukraine accountable for the billions of tax payer dollars we have given them isn’t “Pro Russia,” good lord when did you leftists become so anti peace? I thought that was your mojo back in early 2000s. Also this Trump pro Russia nonsense was tried in 2016, failed then and will fail again. You all will never learn, hence why Trump destroyed Kamala who would have had this country on its knees pissing away money so Zelensky doesn’t have to actually have an election and potentially lose his grasp on power. Let’s see your tone when Zelensky comes crawling back because there are literally no other executable options than to rely on the United States. No longer do we have a kick me sign on our back under the blithering half wit.

Who the hell is this Liquid Guy? Isn’t he some fake retired general or something?

Rather have this dude than DEI Lloyd who fucked away Afghanistan, was in a coma while an active member of the NCA, no strategy on Ukraine, and wore a double Covid mask and face shield while in public.

Having worked in that arena, NATO certainly has its issues. EUCOM forces do 90% of the work, to include NATO’s own staffing. Not even going to cover the can of worms that is the discrepancy between our military and financial contributions despite being 1/31 countries in the alliance. That said, there are strategic advantages to being an active part of the alliance - just wish it wasn’t so slanted.

Sounds like she will do JUST fine! As will CQ, as will Slife and so on. Zero sympathy, even Slife said in his goodbye post that the President deserves Military Senior Leaders he can count on and share his vision.

Well she’s a democrat so it’s okay. Cmon bro! They couldn’t beat us in the election booth, they can’t beat us with logic, nothing left but this kind of crap. Anyone who has studied Noam Chomsky (avowed Marxist and mentor to She Clinton and Obama) understands the playbook.

You mean business as usual? Politics as usual wrt General Officer firings? That’s too reasonable and a Stoical response for a group of folks that need to be constantly outraged by something.
