CDR Salamander
Everyone has their ideas about where they would like the new administration and its Secretary of Defense—and here at CDR Salamander our Secretary of the Navy too—to focus on reforming our military.
Regulars here, especially those who were readers at the OG Blog, and listeners to the Midrats Podcast have a good fix on my ideas, so let’s take today to look at another person’s ideas.
Over at The American Spectator last week, retired USMC Colonel Gary Anderson put out an article, Real Military Reform Begins: Will Pete Hegseth be able to reverse our military’s decline?
It’s not a long article, and as the balance of it aligns with positions we’ve argued here for years, I found myself nodding my head for much of it.
Though he states four, I found it best to break his recommendations into five areas:
- Shipbuilding/Maintenance
- Re-reform the USMC
- Goldwater-Nichols
- Learn from the Russo-Ukrainian War of 2022
- Chinese soft power is eating our lunch
