U.S. Navy SEALs are undergoing a major transition to improve leadership and expand their commando capabilities.

Beijing’s rejection of criticism from America and its friends has grown shriller as the Biden administration demonstrates its ability to pull allies together.

Increasing the size of the SEAL platoons will add high-tech capabilities. And decreasing the number of units will allow Howard to rid the force of toxic leaders and be more selective in choosing commanders. That decision is a direct result of the erosion in character that Navy officials have seen within the force.In recent years, SEALs have been involved in a number of high-profile scandals.

Gallagher was acquitted of all charges except one, posing in photos with the dead captive. A jury recommended his rank be reduced, cutting his pension and benefits as he was about to retire. But President Trump intervened andamid allegations of sexual assault. Members of SEAL Team 10 were involved in cocaine use and tampering with drug tests. And Navy SEAL Adam Matthews was sentenced to a year in military prison for his role in the 2017 hazing-related death of an Army Green Beret in Africa.

Navy leaders also chafed as Navy SEALs broke away from their “quiet professional” ethos, publicizing their participation in the raid into Pakistan that killed Bin Laden, the Al Qaeda leader responsible for plotting the Sept. 11 attacks. Two SEALs wrote books about the mission, prompting a rebuke from the Naval Special Warfare commander at the time, Rear Adm. Brian Losey.

Ok

'U.S. defense leaders believe that two decades of war against militants and extremists have drained resources, causing America to lose ground against Moscow and Beijing.' Oops. The US got nothing from trillions spent on the wars.

Seems like adversaries exploiting weak leadership. CCP unveiling worlds largest naval fleet, encroaching Taiwan, Russia ready for a power play in the Ukraine. Myanmar killing everybody. And in the US?......Our president is worried about flying rainbow flags and staying silent.

Bloody time

How is that going to stop China and Russia from hacking our computer networks? The future is cyberwar.

They weren’t that big of a threat until Dementia Joe got it.
