To avoid racial tensions that weaken morale and cohesion, the Defense Department should eliminate all CRT programs, discontinue the use of racial preferences, and end all forms of race-based discrimination.
he U.S. Supreme Court recently heard oral arguments in two cases challenging race-based affirmative action practices at Harvard and the University of North Carolina (UNC). A group called Students for Fair Admissions (SFFA) sued those civilian schools for discriminatory admission policies, but the high-stakes legal drama also involves the military.
Arguing for the Department of Defense, U.S. Solicitor General Elizabeth Prelogar insisted (without evidence) that military officer corps diversity “is a critical national security imperative” and that “it’s not possible to achieve that diversity without race conscious admissions, including at the nation’s service academies.”
How did the military get roped into this legal debate?
Armed Forces Press is the Military's premier investigative newspaper. Long suffering from an absence of patriotic media, the United States Military is in dire need of an organization which will confront and highlight bad policies.
The Military is in deep need of leadership. Armed Forces Press is committed to highlighting the tremendous courage, determination, tenacity and fortitude that our servicemen exemplify on a daily basis.
