“Sometimes I wish we still had SAC, and Curtis LeMay was still its commander.”

I wasn't old enough to meet him, but worked for a lot of people who had after I enlisted in the early 70’s. He was certainly one of a kind, and highly respected even by most of those who disliked him. We could use more officers of that caliber, and quite a few less of the sort this thread is about. In all branches of the service, not just the Air Force.

You won't get another LeMay as long as the military, particularly the Air Force, has to the priority of political correctness and is used as an instrument for social change.
