Interesting article from Don Buldoc. Linkhttps://sofrep.com/news/the-bolduc-brief-interoperability-failures-among-senior-military-leaders-in-special-operations-and-the-conventional-military/
The politicalization of the senior officer corps is the downfall of all of the military and SOF specifically. Getting rid of the politics will go a long way to alleviate this.
Another is to require everyone working in the SO/LIC office to have a SOF background and prevent non-SOF cronies and “experts” moving into the office. 99% of the non-SOF cronies and “experts” are very political and use their political connections to expand and ensure their upward mobility in their career and do not truly bring a lot to the table. I’ve seen several slow-roll the ASD’s directives that they disagreed with as they knew the ASD would be leaving “soon.”
