1.) I expect a more robust readiness state. No more robbing from Peter to pay Paul. I hope we get more manpower to fill the gaps. We don't need to be at the levels we were during the Reagan era but we sure could use the help and get out of the asking for permission to buy paper mode.
2.) I would expect a pay raise for our men and women in uniform. It is long overdue. it pains me greatly to see and hear about our service families being on welfare and subsistence. Just ain't right.
3.) I expect to see morale rise as we will feel appreciated more for what we do. We will always follow the orders of the President but it makes it nicer when you feel like he understands and appreciate the sacrifices that are made when he is making his decisions to send Americas finest into harms way.
4.) I expect to see reforms in the VA. I hope he puts the right person in charge and they clean house. Our veterans have earned that right.
I don't expect to see most of this in his first year as it will take several to right the ship and gain Americas trust but I do expect we will see this in a year or two.

As you may have noticed, I hold our leaders to high standards. I hope to see morale shift for the better as I feel he will ensure we know we are appreciated. I'd like to see a more robust, better-allocated budget, one that allows for better training, a highly ready fleet of vehicles. Full equality of the genders is a must if women in combat roles is to be taken seriously by their peers.
