    Default DOD Purging Conservatives from the Military

    DOD Uses Witch-hunt for Extremists to Set the Stage for a Purge of Conservatives from the Military

    We know that Obama gutted the officer corps, now it looks like the purge may be directed to the enlisted ranks. To what end, and how long would it take to finish this?

    I can see morale and discipline going downhill fairly quickly.

    Yup, this will hit stride when they "stand down" military wide to examine "white supremacy" soon.

    Yeah, this will work wonders for unity.
    Or was that conformity that they meant?

    Legit question: How/what did Obama due to gut the officer corps? Was it policies implemented that caused people to leave because they didn?t like the direction or something else?

    Policies implemented, key appointments with particular values (senior flag level positions are nominative with senate conformation), leads to service policy changes, mandatory trainings, etc. The military is an up or out type system, you can only be passed over for promotion 3 times before they say farewell.

    It was a massive top down cultural shift. You see it manifested now in the political class of retired generals and admirals who have lost their principles for the favor of the DC bubble.

    Spent 25yrs total in an Army uniform, never met an ?extremist?. Met people who were from every corner of this country, and some foreign countries, who just wanted to serve. Had a few bad apples from a conduct side (alcohol, drugs, domestic challenges, etc) but the military is not free from societies foibles. Extremists? Never met a single one. Then again, the depends on how the left defines that term for this purpose.

    Just my take on what I saw before retiring in 2015.
