I hope he doesn’t go after fat contractors Sent from my iPhone using Baseops Network mobile app

I'm sure he's great. It's not like we have a cadre of purely sociopathic generals. But the nature of the system is such that only "yes men" are going to make it to the top. There's no real metric for effectiveness or success when we aren't in a global war of existential magnitude, so ass-covering and knob-polishing are the prerequisites. How many shitty bosses with toxic leadership did this guy serve without quitting? How about the first time his commander in chief babbled nonsensically on the global stage from 2017-2021? No, because there was still runway ahead for his career. These are the same chumps that spent their youth in the O-Clubs with strippers, drove back to their dorms drunk, then 20 years later told us with a straight face that if you have more than 3 drinks in a night (0-0-1-3) you are a bad officer, while neglecting to mention they have a bottle of Scotch in their Wing King desk. There was never a cause-of-the-day they wouldn't support, whether it was the drunk-sex-is-rape crusade of 2003, the great heritage room massacre of 2012, the Covid firings, or the transification attempt only recently squashed. They love their country, and they served it more than most Americans could ever fathom. But they were not, are not, men of principal and backbone. They are the ones who could best morph into whatever the next boss wanted from them, and the idea that an All-Call would be the last straw is laughable.

After only 40 years of service, what a quitter!

First one to punch out post meeting.

Let's see how many flag officers evaporate now that they have to pass the PT test twice a year 🤣😂. It's so refreshing to have someone in charge of the Department of Murdering Foreigners say out loud that fat people are gross and shouldn't be in the military. Pete just won some points in my book.

Oh please. The only sword these guys fall on is the fleshy kind that gets you promoted if you don't gag too hard on it. His plan fell apart, so he's leaving. Same as it ever was.

The gathering of the Juggalos.

Standards for everyone set at the appropriate male-based levels for physically demanding jobs. What a novel concept. I’m OK with a separate PT test for the non-combat side, but if you’re in a combat job or may see combat because you get attached to a combat unit, you must perform at a higher physical level.

Rumors he hated Wilsbach when he was the ACC/CC, so he would really hate him as CSAF.

Can't wait for the enemy within to get dealt with by deploying the military to every major city in the US to train. Real strong "states rights" vibe from the side that consistently cried about it. Also, “When you let the small stuff go, the big stuff eventually goes, so you have to address the small stuff,” Hegseth said. “This is on duty, in the field and in the rear... We don’t have a military full of Nordic pagans.” Been on here a while, and some of you should hate the small stuff/big stuff comment. Also, did he check with the FBI director? I thought we were supposed to go to Valhalla?

Perhaps you are talking to different people than I am. I had nothing but good interactions with him.

Is he fat? Edit: He just lost the contest for CSAF. Or doesn't like the winner. Bleh. Also I wish they would stop acting like getting paid millions by joining a Defense Contractor for their military connections is somehow "finding new ways to support our Air Force, our national defense, and the incredible people." No speech required. Thank you for your service. Next.

getting fired would be better

Look at this slob...those poor buttons.

When is Fat Tony retiring from USAFA?

Everybody loves the herk!

He said 'might'

You're getting pre-angry based on speculation from a yahoo article? You might be retarded.

Very good points but I absolutely support term limits to prevent lifetime politicians.

So...you were right. Could have just been an email.

In person is worse than Twitter / X. UF fraternities circa 2023 post Jordan Travis injury.
