Breaking (possible) news from the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff

Axios reports here on General Mark A. Milley's views on reform of the disposition process (at least for sex offenses). Headline: "Top general no longer opposes change in sexual assault policy."

Stay tuned for more definitive information about the Independent Review Commission's recommendations and the Chairman's and service chiefs' comments.
