I've also heard that scuttlebutt more than a few times.
Gen. Dempsey and all of the other members of the Joint Chief of Staffs are typical yes men who are just punching the card so they can retire with full bennies at the highest rank possible.
I thought Gen. Amos (Commandant of the Marine Corps) had a pair but I noticed he also no longer has any cajones and has become a yes man.
During the past 4 1/2 years Obama has been removing from command, firing or forcing many Generals, field commanders, flag officers and naval ship, squadrons and base commanders from their commands if they weren't politically correct enough for Obama's liking and replacing them with yes men, not warriors.
He pretty much has the brass in place who he needs to continue his redefining the purpose of our military services and changing it's character. No time in America's military history has it seen so many changes made in our military in the past four years. Just not thnesocial engineering taking place that makes our military weaker but planes that don't fly, ships that can't put to sea and fight and where attending diversity training is more important than training for war. Just a few weeks ago in the name of political correctness Sec. of Def. Hagel said the most important job of the U.S. military is fighting sexual assaults, not our enemies.I suppose that's part of Obama's redefining the purpose of our military services.
I suppose after Obama's fired Gen. McCrystal, Obama realized how easy it was to fire warriors and replace them with those who just want to punch their time clock card and are nothing more than yes men.
If there's any time more in America's history where we need a Billy Mitchell, MacArthur, Patton, or a Merritt Edson, it's today.
Back to the scuttlebutt:
>" “I have just been informed by a former senior military leader that Obama is using a new “litmus test” in determining who will stay and who must go in his military leaders. Get ready to explode folks. “The new litmus test of leadership in the military is if they will fire on US citizens or not”. Those who will not are being removed,” Garrow wrote on his Facebook page, later following up the post by adding the man who told him is, “one of America’s foremost military heroes,” whose goal in divulging the information was to “sound the alarm.”..."<
