MARINE CORPS SHARE OF THE DAY
Rather than wreck it, Berger’s vision will save the Marine Corps from itself
By Col. Tom Hanson (Retired)
Tuesday, May 10

Marine Corps Commandant Gen. David Berger is facing vociferous opposition, allegedly from all living retired Marine four-star generals.
His crime? To operationalize the comments of his predecessor, Commandant Gen. Robert Neller, who in 2017 observed that the Corps no longer was “organized, trained, or equipped” to fight against a conventional peer or near-peer enemy.
