The meeting of every US General in the Marine Corps Base at Quantico does not seem to be tied to any war declaration or crisis. Numerous sources say it’s to provide direction on the realignment of the military, going over the rules, bringing the military back to a “war ethos.”
The speech by the Secretary of War will focus on reinforcing military standards, grooming and physical fitness requirements, leadership, conduct and his vision of a ”warrior ethos.”
This ethos emphasizes harder training, a more aggressive posture for the armed forces, and alignment with the Trump administration’s National Security policies, including greater focus on Homeland Defense and the Western Hemisphere.
Now the Secretary of War is framed it as a direct quote, eyeball to eyeball conversation to ensure everyone is rowing in the same direction.
Apparently, the event is going to be filmed, potentially for later public release, and includes no formal agenda beyond the speech itself, described by some as a motivational pep rally rather than a briefing.
Now, while the Pentagon has confirmed the event, it has provided very few details up front, which heightens the level of unease that everybody has, especially since they’re pulling combatant commanders across the entire world all back at the same time, but at least so far, there’s no evidence pointing to any type of imminent war declaration or any other crisis as the trigger.
Instead, it seems to be more aligning with the current administration’s hands on approach to reshaping military culture.
Maybe it’s just a stunt to scare Poop’n and Xi? I dunno?
They will all have to swear and oath to Trump or be forced into retirement.
I hope the Sec lays it out straight to these commie woke fat assed Generals and that the President is their BOSS not the other way around like that SOB Willey or whatever his name is .That guy should have went before a firing squad. These guys are under the Presidents authority like it or not if not they need… Read more »
From an OPSEC point of view, having the entire senior command structure of our military in one building in Quantico, even if only for one hour and advertising it for weeks, is absolute madness. ONE drone, light plane or vehicle loaded with explosives could potentially take out every officer in the military above O6 in a single attack! Madness! Think… Read more »
That was my first thought.
I am certain this concern was recognized and covered in planning this event.
I hope you are right, but that is what I had thought about the Butler PA campaign rally.
He is calling them back to give them his expectations, with the clear intent of firing anybody that doesn’t meet those expectations. You were warned. CNN can spare me the pearl clutching about pulling war commanders out of the field. Don’t tell me they never take time off, and they won’t be gone long. This is important. I don’t want… Read more »
Well, a lot of speculation, but we’ll find out when we find out.
Most the military’s ‘top brass’ are a bunch of communist garbage hand picked by obama and company. They drove the real officers out beginning in the 90s, ending about 2004. Maybe they’ll gather them, say you are all fired, then thunder fills the room, when the smoke clears, a help wanted sign pops up above the pentagon and a bunch… Read more »
