The Need for Merit
“When I was in the military it was said there was only one people, green. Unity through focusing the commonality instead of differences.”
"The "woke" ideology has a narcissistic core. It's a victimhood ideology, which is not conducive to a successful military structure."
"My former unit bought into this nonsense. Went from one of the most accomplished in our branch of Service to the bottom. Cannot recruit anyone. Long time employees are leaving like never before."
"The military always has been inclusive and respectful. We don't need to push that. What we need to push is excellence, whatever the color of their skin."
"This administration is an insult to our warriors who in my experience judge other warriors by ability, merit, and proven results; nothing else."
"I served 22 years in the Army. I’m very proud of my service to this country but there’s NO WAY I’d serve in today’s military. As a female soldier I had much to overcome and hardship beyond belief but I’d rather go through all that over again than serve in today’s Army. We all bled green and served as a unit."
"Having been exposed to Ft. Benning in the late 1950s I can attest that it was inclusive....you do your job and you are included. Not up to standards...you are NOT included."
"Teams don’t celebrate diversity. They promote unity. That’s the difference. Everyone one color. Everyone one team."
"The military is NOT supposed to be about "diversity". It is supposed to be about being totally combat ready to prevail in any situation. You don't care what color or party the person who has your six is, as long as they are competent and help you accomplish the mission."
