Exactly.
Ideally, that's why we have the Joint Chiefs, to be that barrier between civilian ignorance (literally, not being mean, meaning lack of understanding) and military matters.
Of course present day, present shitbird POTUS, they're largely PC puppets completely out of touch. (In all fairness this has occurred to some degree pre-BO).
Two things really scare me here
1)That the marines were the only branch to come up with hard data that this would make their force less effective. The commandant then promptly said this was a bad idea. The clown in the White House overruled him. Kudos to the Commandant for sticking up for his Marines.
2)The other branches that didn't get hard data said no problem.

There's a reason the other branches didn't stand up....
He's carried out a purging of the military's officer corps that even Stalin himself would be impressed with.
Basically he's cleaning out officers who don't agree with him politically and replacing them with ones who do.

Then Commandant General Joseph Dunford is now the Joint Chief of Staff. During Carter's press conference yesterday he was noticeably absent. When Carter was asked if General Dunford was on board with the decision he dodged the question. Basically admitting that no, the JCS did not agree with the decision

The dysfunction is that in many/most cases, the higher up you go the more political the rank. Funny because we're not much better now in that regard than the Soviet Union and its politburo regime in the 80s.
So while those at the highest echelon may give varying degrees of shite about combat effectiveness, their #1 priority is career which means doing and believing what the leftist scum progs above you say. Hell I'd bet most of them are so far removed from reality that it may not even a big leap for them to really believe the social programming bullshite.
