Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff calls for a 'truly inclusive,' more diverse military

The chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff said the military must become more diverse and provide more advancement for black service members.
“Opportunity in our military must be reflective of the diverse talent in order for us to remain strong,” Army Gen. Mark Milley said during an ROTC commissioning ceremony. “Our nation is ready to fulfill the promise of our Constitution to build a more perfect union and to ensure equal justice for all people, and it is your generation that can and will bring the joint force to be truly inclusive of all people.”
Milley said that while black service members fill 20% of the military’s ranks, they are underrepresented in some fields, such as senior ranks and Air Force pilots. Of the 41 four-star generals currently serving, only two are black.
As usual, no mention of the need for intelligent, highly educated and skilled individuals especially in senior ranks and pilot ranks where one tiny error can spell disaster, the need for critical thinking skills to understand tactical planning and operations, the need for a thorough education and understanding of warfare history and expertise, and no mention of the lack of talent, the lack of certain minorities who are choosing NOT to pursue STEM fields, etc, etc.
China's winning the war without firing a shot!

So, they want more blacks to die for gas and oil?

Why no complaints from Milley that blacks far outnumber their relative population percentage?
This is like complaining that the 70 percent black NFL doesn't have enough black quarterbacks.

My son is currently at USAF pilot school and the last thing anyone needs is young men augering in because someone does or doesn’t like their skin tone.
That helps nobody...

Talked last week to the BGO that interviewed my boy for Annapolis. Said he had resigned the role, largely due to crap like this.
Really of two minds sometimes about my boy going into the military in 2 years. Thing that keeps me level is the hope that there will be less than 2 years left of this administration when he is commissioned.

What does any of this have to do with having the best military?
I don't care about equity, inclusivity, opportunities, etc. I want a military that can defend The United States of America to the best of it's ability. That could be all men, all black men, all Asian women, all women who think they are men, etc. I don't care.
But worrying about checking boxes FIRST before making sure the military is up to the job it's there for is fricking insane.

The military is already inclusive.
