... purge of the military has been so dramatic that with Army Secretary Driscoll gone, the military’s largest service is left without a top civilian leader, a Senate-confirmed top general, a confirmed Army general in charge of operations, or a confirmed commander of Army troops in Europe. Because of all the firings across the service over the past year, the Army, with more than 450,000 active-duty soldiers positioned across the globe, has fewer generals than at any point in recent history.
It's all so hard to believe. This Administration. We can only hope the voters vote these people out of office.
