Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth's Speech to Troops
Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth ordered troops to watch or read his speech, in which he discussed the "warrior ethos" and criticized the "woke" military.
During the speech, Hegseth focused on fitness and grooming standards, calling out "fat generals" and ordering women in the military to meet the "highest male standards" for physical fitness.
The "woke" military is gone.
A memo obtained by NPR requires servicemembers to complete the "Warrior Ethos Tasking" by the end of the month, which includes watching the video of Hegseth's speech and reading updated policy memorandums.
- Enhance physical fitness
- Improve grooming standards
- Boost military readiness
The memo instructs commanders to document completion of the tasking in a Memorandum for Record.
