Are the Motivations to Serve Missing in Today's Military? A Conversation with Three Leaders
STARRS & Stripes Host CDR Al Palmer, USN ret, was joined by the presidents of three veterans organizations who are working towards eliminating CRT/DEI ideology from the military and restoring a focus on high standards and merit. They include from STARRS Colonel Ron Scott, USAF ret, USAFA '73; from the MacArthur Society Colonel Bill Prince, USA ret, USMA '70; and from the Calvert Task Group Captain Tom Burbage, USN ret, USNA '69.
They begin by discussing what made each of them want to attend the service academies and serve in the military. The conversation then steers towards the present-day challenges of recruiting the next generation of military personnel. Reflecting on the patriotic fervor of the baby boomer generation, influenced by World War II veterans, they explore the waning sense of nationalism among today’s youth. The panelists provide insights into how societal changes, educational environments, and shifting attitudes are impacting military recruitment, particularly in regions traditionally known for military support. The need for strong leadership development and integrity in young recruits is emphasized as crucial for the future of the armed forces.
The panel also navigates the complexities of military leadership, pressing concerns around recruitment and retention come to the forefront. They tackle the effectiveness of current strategies, including financial incentives and diversity initiatives, and question their impact on military cohesion. The discussion calls for a reevaluation of policies, stressing the need for mentorship and leadership that truly understands the unique demands of military service. Concluding with a focus on military academies, they advocate for reducing civilian faculty to strengthen the core values of duty and service, ensuring the next generation of leaders upholds the highest standards of military excellence.
