--why the military should follow the way sports teams are set up based on the best, not identity
--the military is for warfighters--not for benefits
--how DEI got into the military
--politics at the flag level
--role of civilian policymakers at the Pentagon pushing DEI
--inspiring kids to join the military through 'kick-butt' role models
--no civilian instructors at the service academies
