| Former Space Force Officer Says ‘Separate Chain Of Command' Enforces ‘Divisive Ideology' In Military Academy |
| 2024-07-07 |
| [Daily Caller] A former United States Space Force officer said Saturday morning that diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI) is enforced by a "separate chain of command" at the Air Force Academy. Former Space Force Lieutenant Colonel Matt Lohmeier, who was relieved of command after he spoke out against DEI initiatives in the military in 2021 and says he lost his pension, told guest host Joey Jones on "Fox and Friends Saturday" that the academy "has diversity and inclusion cadet officers" who "report to a separate chain of command." Jones had referred to an Arizona State University study that found service academies encourage reporting "private conversations that challenge DEI precepts," asking Lohmeier if he had similar experiences.

A fellow commander informed me that they’re aware of my kind of politics and that they’d be happy to turn me into the base commander if I continued to privately criticize our diversity, equity and inclusion initiatives," he said. "But this problem has grown far beyond what I experienced, personally and professionally in the military workplace." "My own alma mater, the U.S. Air Force Academy, has diversity and inclusion cadet officers who wear a special insignia within their cadet squadrons, they wear purple braided rope over the shoulders and they report to a separate chain of command other than their military chain of command, relating to diversity and inclusion issues," he continued. "It reminds one of Soviet political commissars that have been established both in the Soviet Union and in other Marxist revolutionary efforts throughout the last century."
