#Defense Secy #PeteHegseth ordered hundreds of generals to travel on short notice from around the world to hear him make a short speech on #military standards & the “warrior ethos”….
Hegseth’s orders, which were sent earlier this week to senior generals & admirals worldwide, require anyone in a command position with the rank of one-star general or rear admiral & above, as well as their senior enlisted leaders, to be at Marine Corps University at Quantico, VA, on Tuesday.
Exceptions will be granted on a rare basis with approval from top #military officials, the people familiar with the matter said, speaking on the condition of anonymity to discuss sensitive planning.
“It’s meant to be an eyeball-to-eyeball kind of conversation,” one person familiar with ongoing discussions said. “He wants to see the generals.”
