The first question I'd have in meeting Ms Belew is:
Does she have any close personal life-long relationships with any current serving or veteran members of the US military?
The use of the term glass ceiling may apply here…..I suspect there's a glass ceiling that separates her from active/veteran members of the US military….with her looking down through the glass at them.

The second question I'd have for Ms Belew is:
Can she compare and contrast how the US Army found her racist/murderer examples Miller and Mcveigh UNSUITABLE BEFORE they committed their crimes, but how academia found Ayers, Dohrn, Boudin, and Seale SUITABLE AFTER they committed their crimes?
That would be interesting.
I'd agree completely with Belew……if Miller and Mcveigh were made professors at West Point after their crimes she would have a valid point.
To me, this stuff smells like IPB for one "caste"(liberal academics) to chip away at the most respected institution in the US(Military) to make it socially acceptable to break the contract with them with the payoff being the transfer of federal spending from the smaller veteran tribe to the larger welfare tribe fronted by the liberal academics.
Tribal cannibalism writ large.
