I think the lack of trust in the institution is overwhelming. If I were Gen Welsh I'd be making unannounced popins at the various MLRs for various boards asking the MAJCOM, NAF and WG/CCs to show their work.
The second he finds shit is going contrary to his instructions is when you let the heads roll. For loss of trust in leadership.

For crying out loud, the undersecretary of the Air Force has a bachelors only. So, l can virtually run this organization with only a BS/BA but in order to qualify to be an ADO I have to have a masters degree?
Finally, there are some fields that need officers with masters degrees before Colonel.
For once and for all, divide the LAF into line (operators) and restricted line (non operators) And possibly another category for space guys and other highly technical AFSCs that aren't already JAG or BSC/Med
