In this episode Alex discusses many of the big headlines in the press relating to the U.S Army. From the revival of the 'Be all that you can be" slogan and the new Army recruiting commercial, to the newly released U.S Army Cadet Command (USACC) enlisted referral program, and the much-anticipated ACFT height and weight guideline changes. 

I provide my opinions, thoughts, and insight on all of these areas and offer commentary that you won't find anywhere else.
