This change will come in handy when they order the illegal aliens who have enlisted, to fire on US citizens.

The US government and all its institutions, and most cultural institutions, all paper pushers, all hate America and are openly seeking to destroy it.

The only real patriots are us little people who actually did work building things and providing services that people wanted and were willing to pay for -- unlike most government "services."

“The most terrifying words in the English language are: I'm from the government and I'm here to help.” -- Ronald Reagan

Replaced with "Army Values" - as if those should be different than any other service....more breeding of divisiveness by the "woke" crowd.

So, if some Hitler-type becomes the top Army guy he can set the "values" for recruits/cadets ? Not the Constitution ? Great, just great.

Army values are LDRSHIP

Loyalty
Duty
Respect
Selfless Service
Honor
Integrity
Personal Courage

It does not, however, define loyalty and where you must place it.... like to your Country. These "values" can be and ARE easily manipulated.

It seems unthinkable in this country, but militaries sometimes do defy leadership and back "the people," although I don't expect that to happen here.

Read the history of the worst Communist dictator ever: Nikolai Ceausescu and his worthless wife, who ruled Romania with an iron fist. The crisis happened in 1989 as Communism was collapsing in Europe.

The military turned against them both, captured them, held a brief trial, sentenced them to death, took them outside and shot them.

Years ago the whole thing was posted online as a video, don't know if it's still available or not, but the story is still out there.
