- Summary:
- "Wokeness used to be an annoying distraction in the US military. Now it is a major threat to national security. Faster than most of us thought possible, our military has become a woke, dysfunctional bureaucracy focused not on winning wars but on identity politics, gender idealogy, climate change, and other favored causes of the leftist elite. Don't think that China isn't watching. Don't think that Russia, Iran, and North Korea haven't noticed. But so has Amber Smith, a former US Army combat helicopter pilot and Deputy Assistant to the Secretary of Defense."--Page 4 of cover.
