The DoD bureaucracy is wildly larger than it was in WWII due to lobbying and the deep state techocracy that wants to keeps its jobs. Everyone tells us how technology should streamline things and stuff.
Well...it should be easier to have permanent staff roles for Colonels who are just not able to be commanders but can be great staffers to be permanent colonels again. These used to exist. Then Permanent Brigadier Generals. But the volume of 2 stars and 3 stars that float around for staff roles is WILD. In some of these commands you have a 2 star leading a staff section because you're using it as a warming bench...how long is that effective. We have Corps HQs which now are higher than Army HQs as we've relegated Armies to sustainment commands. Yet both are 3 star commands and the Army HQ is generally not led by an officer whose trade is that of a sustainer. There is no way in hell that our current conflicts are so much more complicated that needed to add an onion's worth of bureaucracy
Our current force structure is effed.

Well, what we got was not normal, what we got was an attack on normal society. That is why Trump won, to drain the swamp, but to get Washington back to a place where normal is the norm. To get rid of Child Groomers who are pushing the drag shows in libraries and the chemical castration of 6 year olds by their liberal crazy parents.
