“We should transfer on the pace of relevance” ~ U.S. Air Drive Secretary Heather Wilson.
Huge discuss, however scant change!
Our new Secretary of Battle is aggressively emphasizing “The Warrior Ethos,” and provoking all our troops to embrace his mind-set:
Everybody who serves have to be individually able to defend themselves and our nation, immediately and enthusiastically, with deadly power when vital.
It’s about time!
Certainly, isn’t that what armies are for?
I really like the rhetoric.
But, the newest deadly armed assault on two of our uniformed Nationwide Guardsmen in Washington, D.C., by a lone Islamic terrorist, sadly, reveals that little has modified on the base stage.
Pray inform, why aren’t all US army commissioned officers and S/NCOs now required to hold pistols (in an applicable state of readiness for fast private protection), hid or overtly because the scenario warrants, on a regular basis, however significantly when deployed in uniform in high-crime, metro sewers, like Washington DC, Chicago, and many others?
Why did a significant in our Military Nationwide Guard, whereas on lively obligation in Washington DC, should resort to utilizing a pocket knife to defend himself and his troopers towards an armed, AA-shouting, Islamic terrorist?
Why aren’t all our officers and S/NCOs taught tips on how to, and anticipated to, frequently carry challenge pistols, spherical chambered, immediately prepared to fireside? [and Donald Trump promised to, “mandate that soldiers remain armed and on alert …”]
Isn’t that what all these pistols the Pentagon ordered are for?
People deserve to listen to sincere solutions to those questions.
It seems that the very notion of loaded firearms and ammunition, in a steady excessive state of readiness and within the palms of our army personnel, nonetheless frightens the snot out of our senior brass.
Clearly, our Military continues to be afraid of weapons!
With all due respect, our Honorable Secretary of Battle must put up or shut up!
