When I see active duty military, I feel afraid.

10. My son is active duty Navy, assigned to a guided missile destroyer.

I ask him from time to time what the political temperature is among his shipmates and his answer is always the same, as it has been going all the way back to basic training; they just don’t talk much about politics. We also have a few nephews and nieces in military service, and none are reporting any serious rightwing overtones. Most are just doing their duty and their jobs.

Now having said that, if TSF succeeds in clearing out all the “woke” generals and admirals and promotes in a group of sycophantic individuals that could certainly create some problems down the chain of command if they started issuing unconstitutional orders. But that’s a big if. But should that unthinkable occur, there’s still the fact that those orders have to filter down to men and women who have taken an oath to defend the Constitution, not serve a dictator. Lots of variables to be sure.
