Understanding General Mark Milley
By Warren Beatty
The first thing I learned at Army Officer Candidate School is that all officers have two primary duties: accomplish the assigned mission and take care of the men ('men' is an all-inclusive term that includes women). I didn't rise to the rank of general, nor did I go to West Point. Those people may have been taught something different, but I doubt it (West Point grads and/or General Officers, correct me if I'm wrong).
Assuming I'm correct, consider General Mark Milley's performance on 30 June before a House Armed Services Committee hearing to discuss the 2022 Defense Department budget. General Milley, Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, the highest-ranking and most senior military officer in the United States, when considering his first duty, must have assigned himself the mission: 'look woke during testimony.' On that I rate him a 10 of 10. He succeeded.
But I rate his accomplishment of the second duty a 0 of 10.
