I'm not convinced that the U.S. military, with its hypersonic focus on wokeness, CRT, and the rest of the Austin-inspired bullshit, is nearly as competent as we'd like to believe it is.
Combined operations, like rifle marksmanship, is a perishable skill. Austin, Milley, and the rest of the wokesters at the top levels of the U.S. military, have completely forgotten what it takes to win wars. Granting trannies the honor of putting a uniform on is far more important.
