Military Malcontents ???

Some strange stuff has been happening in the USUKAUS military establishments:

1. The commander of Wright-Patterson AFB has been relieved:

2. The Brits can't find anyone willing to command their submarine force [I would do it, but I doubt they'd have me]:

3. And the US defense secretary was [or still is?] in the hospital for unknown reasons and no one at the White House seemed to know what was going on:

Possible reasons? It may be difficult to find military leaders who are willing to do crazy things, like fighting losing proxy wars in Ukraine and the Middle East AND at the same time antagonizing Russia, China, and most of the rest of the world.

Should that be the case, you can almost be certain their replacements will be religious fanatics or ones who favor delusional thinking over reality. Who else would be willing to risk death in a nuclear fireball or a watery grave, while dooming their country at the same time?
