And this little "shocker" from Votel:

"One challenge will be indoctrination programs to make sure skeptical male commandos accept them."

WTF? I guess they think a bunch of SHARP type briefings will change everyone's mind. Or they plan on waterboarding everyone into submission.

And this from Elaine Donnelly:

“Men in special operations forces do indeed have another reason to feel stressed, for reasons worse than budget cuts and stepped-up deployments,” she said. “Vertical cohesion, meaning mutual trust up and down the chain of command, has been shattered by USSOCOM leaders who are failing to defend their interests at a time when Pentagon authorities are imposing social experiments that will cost lives and missions in special operations forces.”

Maybe she should be in charge of SOCOM.
She gets it but GEN "sell his troops out for a MACOM" Votel wants to indoctrinate the over 80%
