#2 McCrystal, you uncultured swine, martial arts is not just a physical ability but also a mind set. A mind set you don't get by playing candy crush in between diabetes shots and DEI streaming videos.

Even the Starship Troopers movie, intended to be a parody of the book, acknowledges this.

#3 Time to weed out the careerists and really start holding people accountable. F* the staff report, it is not a substitute for making the hard decisions. If you don't want to make the decision, retire. Keep your f*ing fingers out of the process. Build for today not waiting for something that may or may not come along in time. If you can not settle the designs, fire those who are delaying it.

Since becoming secretary, I have been alarmed to find that our Army is at risk of falling behind other major powers across the globe, including China

No you are not falling behind other 'major' powers. All those other powers are regional. They don't project far from their borders. The Chinese are salivating over Taiwan not Alaska. The Russians are tied up in the Ukraine. The Euros are lame unless Putin's on their border. The Iranians need to keep their reliable Revolutionary Guards at home to keep the population in awe.
