.@PentagonPresSec says SecDef Lloyd Austin is concerned about the diversity among senior ranks of the DOD. Wants to make this an “everyday” effort to diversify up the ranks. “He strongly believes that diversity is a readiness issue.”

This is low grade treason. Deliberately sowing strife in the ranks. In wartime, this would be an executable offense.

It's already being pushed all the recent Limited Duty Officer selections have been minority women. The ones who worked for me prior to their commission have all been incompetent. So glad i only have 5 more months left in this rapidly sinking ship!

I am wondering the exact same thing. Our military needs to prosecute campaigns against foreign adversaries. Not be a social experiment!

diversity among the senior ranks

Diversity as in different experiences in forming the best military on the planet? Yes

Diversity in battle planning? Yes

Diversity in lethal weapons? Yes

Diversity in the mentally ill leading our military? Hell no

You'd have to be an idiot to enlist in the armed services. These diversity promotions are going to get a lot of people killed.

Thats been the dream since Clinton’s meals-on-wheels military deployments.

These idiots do not understand what the military’s fundamental purpose is.

It’s ridiculous how we aren’t diverse in the military. I mean all of China’s military are Asians. We need to step it up.
