Are the Military Academies producing the same quality of leader today as in years past? In what way are they changing?

Yes, the ring knocker I served with are as good as any in the past. I was proud to serve with them.

No, I don't believe so. The Army has changed in many ways over the past few years, and many changes have been made, and many were detrimental to the image, as well as performance, of the Army. Standards have been thrown out the window. Its not the same, and it is not good for the Army, and for our country. Just my personal opinion...
