There is an old joke about why scientists have started to use lawyers instead of rats for experimentation (apologies in advance to Susie Moore and my other colleagues who are or were lawyers).

It is no secret that the left hates Secretary of War Pete Hegseth more than they hate President Trump. Hegseth has brought a vigor and focus to the job that has rarely been seen since the Department of Defense, now styled the Department of War, was formed in 1947.

He not only stopped it, but he is reversing it.
Hardly a day passes that does not bring with it some breathless exposé of how Hegseth is violating some norm or the other and why that is very, very bad.
The favorite target for these stories is Hegseth's willingness to fire generals and admirals who will not support the administration (see Pete Hegseth Gives the Army Chief of Staff His Walking Papers – RedState and Two More Army Generals Get Shown the Door. Connected? Or Just Timing? – RedState); his alleged feud with Army Secretary Dan Driscoll, and Hegseth's overt Christianity.
