For the record, I've never PM'ed you, ever. So I have no idea why you've made it seem like I have argued with you in private in the past when I never once have made contact with you?
Happy posting, Please follow site rules going forward.
I disagree. I listened to the speech and I think he addressed what needed to be addressed. It was about restoring order. I'd think that most of the people in that room agree with him and appreciated hearing that the administration has their back. Some might think its regressive, but change isn't always good or necessary.
Gotcha. We'll see if it's more talk than action. They say false motivation is still a form of motivation.
I think the speech did exactly what it was supposed to, and I'm OK with almost everything he said. Much of it, like broken windows leadership, toxic leadership, DIME and DEI. It's almost like his speechwriter reads my blog.
I'm technically not but but not at all concerned with being called a boomer. I think we need shark attacks and "hands on" leadership in basic training. I think we need to look sharp and clean- cut in uniform. I'm good with GI parties in the barracks. One thing he mentioned that I especially appreciated was cutting out ridiculous mandatory training and letting NCOs and Officers train their soldiers. Also, I think everyone needs to meet the same fitness standards, especially in combat arms. There wasn't one talking point I disageed with. Lastly, I agree with his take that WE are different from society so social norms don't always apply to us.
Hopefully they had productive discussions and shared a beer afterwards. As a Sr NCO, I would appreciate hearing it straight from the boss' piehole because fuck email directives.
Just no.
