The Marine Corps needs to become more diverse in order to save Marines’ lives, Corps Commandant Gen. David Berger said on Wednesday.
“I am absolutely convinced: Too much similarity – too much that we look all the same, think the same, got the same background – we’re going to get killed because we’re going to end up with solutions that we’re all familiar with but they’re easy to counter,†Berger said during the Marine Corps Association’s annual Modern Day Marine expo.
Berger stressed that the Marine Corps will become a more capable force as it diversifies on many levels, including diversity of thought, culture, and ethnic backgrounds.
