What Real Diversity Is
Representative Brian Mast from Florida has five minutes to make a point and he puts it to use. The best best explanation of how diversity should work I've heard from a politician.
And it has weakened us. It would never be done, but a study about how those promotions have played out, how many of those quotas have gone on to command, or if those command tours were successful or problematic, or if the number of firings has increased, would be very insightful. The Navy has tried to do some damage control prevention with those picks as I've seen some weak COs put into commands that aren't front-line sea-going billets- shore commands, ships in the yard, ships scheduled for decommissioning, the USS Constitution, training commands, etc. They are full of quotas imho.
Never forget the dynamic duo on that Navy ship who were both being stuffed by the same admiral. One was the ship's captain, and the other was in the combat information center, and they would not talk to each other. The one in the CIC saw an approaching ship on radar but refused to notify the captain. The two ships collided, and several US sailors died.

Glen! Hadn't seen you in a while.
The military officer corps does do promotions by race and sex quotas.
