Comments from the article, Why Scott Perry, Brigadier General, ultimately resigned: the Army’s woke agenda betrayed his core values:
“That is why I retired too. That and an organization that valued diversity over experience. I would never recommend that a young person go into the military today.”
“My brother has 37 years in the DoD and he’s retiring for the same reason. He sits in more white privilege classes than he does the required ship maintenance.”
“I retired from the U.S. Army as a senior officer after over 35 years of active duty service for similar reasons cited by BG (Ret) Perry. The current state of our armed forces is woefully unprepared to engage in and win a conventional war with our current advisories, especially if they join forces. Unfortunately for America, it appears the next war we will be engaged in will be on U.S. soil.”
“After 20 + years, I have had a enough and am also retiring. Anyone who tries to convince you we are the best fighting force on the planet are wrong. We have grown where the service members who join to fight to defend this country are not the majority anymore.”
“My son retired from the Navy for the same reason. I worked for the AFROTC and saw the waste of $$$ daily.”
“That was one of the reasons, not the main reason, I retired from the service after 24 years. I saw a service member enter the service and came to our unit going through gender reassignment process. They claimed they were a female and started getting therapy sessions. That caused them to be non-deployable. Then they got approved for the surgery to remove parts to make them more female like. That and then the recovery time was over a year and a half. By the time they were fully transitioned and fully able to deploy that service member's service obligation in active duty was up. So they joined, got paid the whole time, got free tax payer paid counseling, surgery, vacation, medical, and 4 years of tax payer paid college funds for what? Nothing.”
“I came from a multi-generational military family. I served in the US Army. I married a guy in the USAF. When our youngest son got to the point of joining the military, we talked him OUT of it. The way our government/military treated our family the last 5 years that my husband was active duty, we knew that it would only get worse. It has. I'm SO glad we talked him out of joining the military!”
“"He was talking about a trend toward progressivism that he saw as antithetical to a military that was designed to strip soldiers of their individual wants and needs and rebuild them into one fighting force." He's right. There is also another casualty of this progressivism. That casualty is morale. A lack of morale in a fighting force is extremely dangerous. Extremely dangerous to lives as well as the security of this country and its interests.”
“Congressman Perry speaks for so many of us that left a career that we loved because we could see the handwriting on the wall. Sad to say but our military has been neutered.”
