Well, he was a CSM in the Army. This is a good thing, except if he was what he now appears to be which was a political animal. The US Army is a huge bureaucracy which makes it susceptible to all the same problems of any big bureaucracy. (The failings of which are now costing the tax payers HUGE enlistment bonuses because too many careerists won’t call BS on social engineering programs that go too far).
I’m afraid he will not be someone who goes in there and gets them back on mission, but rather one who keeps things quiet and kicks the can down the road for the next poor sucker. A great strategy unless you get “unlucky” and your lack of mission focus blows up on you (which in the FAA likely means fatalities and/or large economic consequences).
