Maintaining a relationship between the U.S. military and higher education is key to preserving democracy, said Gen. Bob Brown, president and CEO of the Association of the U.S. Army.

Speaking April 6 during an event hosted by the University of North Georgia’s Institute for Leadership and Strategic Studies, Brown said a “close, productive relationship” between the two entities “is really essential to our democratic way of life.”

Unlike previous generations, Americans today are less likely to know a service member, Brown said. This deepens the civilian-military divide, a challenge that the military and academia will need to address.

“Broadening our understanding of war is difficult because of a second challenge: the growing military-civilian gap,” he said. “In the United States on active duty, we have the smallest percentage of individuals serving in a peacetime era since between World War I and World War II.”

The military had better keep a very,VERY, VERY tight watch on anything and everything academia "helps" them with.  Since something like 90% of academia considers themselves liberals, liberals hate America and the military, liberals and spies in academia should be considered capable of sabotaging projects or "sharing" information with like minded governments,  If it looks like I see real problems, it's because I do. :pondering:
