Somewhat of a distance I saw Commanding Officers seek the objective counsel of JAG Officers. Not to trick fuck the system but to ensure the right thing was being done, by the book and legally. Totally foreign to a drunk like Hegseth. And as others high up in the trumpisphere hegseth is not in charge of DOD, his owner is. Trump is doing what weak people do. Surround himself with loyalists instead of those who know the job and what they are doing.
