The VA is not part of DOD so that will not be his decision

Can you help us out? Here major a lower rank?


Is Major a lower rank?



Last guy was a 4 star general. A major is qualified to get his coffee, schedule his travel, take him to the airport, and keep his calendar.


Are you military? Are you Infantry? Do you have an EIB and CIB? Did you deploy?


4 star generals have what’s called an “exec”, and they are majors and Lt Cols. But you know that, right?

If you knew anything about command, you’d know that credibility matters and a major in the guard has NONE with the JCS.


Nobody gives a damn about 4 star generals.

Except their wives, the other 4 stars who hate them, and the syncophants (of which there are many) who kiss their asses so thoroughly that they never need to buy toilet paper.



even if that is true there are a lot of people between 4 star generals and majors.

Generals are morons and don’t know what’s going on. Trump figured that out in term 1.

He’s right to choose a lower rank, and it’s a big FU to the Pentacon


I mean if you say so. Your post just screams knowledge, insight, and credibility.

Generals are perfumed princes. They are basically politicians. That’s it .


It's the Secretary of defense. If it's always a general or other top rank in that position, maybe it's important to have a skilled politician that also achieved a top rank in that role.


Well, I am a vet who would rather be led by the guy with a CIB. Period.


Literally, you are likely more qualified than this guy.


What’s your military experience?


A good SecDef doesn't need to have had military experience. Sorta the whole point of it being a civilian position

No smart, professional general will take a loyalty pledge to a president. This isn’t a Banana Republic. Yet.


SecDefs should be former generals actually anyway.

Which coincidentally seems to be the only one that hasn't been solidly verified yet (that I've seen).
