The Army has begun a new program to take a closer look at command sergeants major eligible to lead brigades in an effort to weed out potentially toxic leaders.

"It wasn't that the old system was bad. It's just how do we pick a better leader?" Sgt. Maj. of the Army Michael Grinston told reporters Monday. "We want to move into the 21st century with really good talent management and assess and ensure that we have the absolute best leaders for our soldiers. Our soldiers deserve the best we can give them."

The program mirrors one recently launched for senior officers that has shown to give soldiers more fit and capable commanders, according to the Army Talent Management Task Force.

I'm seeing that word "toxic" more and more in reference to military leadership.  Remember when everything wrong was attributed to "toxic masculinity"? You don't suppose that left wing word "toxic" is appearing more frequently comes from liberal Mark Milley, do you?
