An Officer Dissents On ‘Woke Military’ – The American Conservative

I’m an active-duty military officer who’s served at home and across the world in division-level headquarters and higher, with special operations teams, and in the Pentagon.   I’m not important or a policymaker, but am close enough to see what the world looks like from the top of the military hierarchy, and have been able to see what the military has been like over the past several years from the top, middle, and bottom.

And, well, the woke-ization of the military you’ve been describing more and more just doesn’t exist.

Certain facts you build on do–there are trans servicemembers, for example.  The sort of language about pronouns or DEI that’s found elsewhere in American culture can be found in the DoD as well.  But the overall narrative is just…off.

This is a relief, if true.
