US Army Revises Standards on Prohibited Extremist Activity
27th June 2024
Secretary of the Army Christine Wormuth signed off on a pair of memos, published on June 26, that refine how the service will handle protests and extremist or gang activity within the ranks, and report suspected prohibited behavior. One memo a directive for “Handling Protest, Extremist, and Criminal Gang Activities“ and the other is a directive for ”Reporting Prohibited Activities.”
I have serious misgivings about the making of a woman who is not only not a veteran but who has never held a real job (other than collecting a government paycheck) the person in charge of one of the armed services. Such a person is necessarily steeped in politics and will inevitably views military service as Just Another Government Job the primary purpose of which is to promote a partisan political agenda rather than the nominal purpose for which it exists.
