Hopefully it will be a case of 'Semper Fi'. Saw him answering questions from assorted US Marines on a USMC YouTube channel (easy enough to find) and from that he came across as professional, straight talking, yet thoughtful, 'Gung ho' but with a good brain if you like. I rather liked him. Reminded me a bit of my Grandfather who was also a professional soldier (inter war on North West Frontier of India and then WWII) although my granddad only reached the giddy heights of CSM, although senior NCO's are the actual backbone of any military force.

Have to say I wish Great Britain could have a Minister of Defence like this man, someone who knew the military from the inside.
