Don't worry. Mattis isn't being replaced. Just a humorous story to the U.S. women’s hockey goaltender, Maddie Rooney, whom apparently received the title 'secretary of defense' on Wikipedia.

MAJ James Woods It came from her play on the ice. Defense wins championships, and she certainly proved it in Seoul. It is awesome that Gen. Mattis acknowledged it with a personal note. Her response was equally good. I hope she keeps that note with the medal.

I know where it came from. I'm not disagreeing with or making fun of this. I'm sharing some humor and admiration of an interesting occurrence.

Yet another example of why General (Ret) Mattis was such a great pick for SecDef. What a gracious and thoughtful thing to do. Great note, General. You saluted her ... I salute you both.
