I think your point over our, DA, USASOC, USASFC and others justification to Congress and Senate oversight committees. This point will be the issue with trying to pull the Regiment back towards a UW mindset and off the DA. Without Group leadership pushing it down, no hell USASFC with over sight on the number on Concepts, CNTs and JCETs coming for that 180 day approvals to track, show, etc who is UW focus and meeting the 1st SFC Guidance. Without leadership pushing it, language and UW will never change for us.

We have every Company (ODA Level and Up) to soon to be 1st SFC General only knowing, think, planning DA style missions for the 10 years. This has been our problem for many years.
