New Presidential Plan for 2025:
Armed Forces of America
Model One of Two
Developed by the Stand Up America US Foundation
Our dedicated team of seasoned military strategists and experts with a wealth of experience have crafted two models for the new President to consider when restructuring the Armed Forces of America.
Issues/Initiatives:
Eliminating the Joint Chiefs of Staff is a crucial step. This outdated structure provides no advanced command advisory capabilities to deal with current and future threats to America. It must be converted to a Command-driven military rather than an advisory/staff organization of the Armed Forces of America. This is not just critical; it’s urgent and cannot be ignored. Action will begin the week of January 20th after the inauguration. This is necessary to ensure the safety and security of our nation and eliminate all domestic and foreign threats to America.
History: The Joint Chiefs of Staff, born as the U.S. members of the Combined Chiefs of Staff, was established on February 9, 1942, to coordinate the war effort between Great Britain and the United States. JCS continued to function after the war and was given statutory authority by the National Security Act of 1947. The need for an overall command structure to coordinate the efforts of various military services became evident during World War II. This historical significance underscores the weight of the decision to restructure, a decision that will shape the future of the Armed Forces of America. The weight of this decision is a testament to the importance and impact of the restructuring proposal.
Establish: Focus on a command-driven Force.
· Commander of the US Armed Forces – 5 stars
· Commander of the US Army -4 star positions
· Commander of the Marine Corps
· Commander of the Air Force.
· Commander of Space Command.
· Commander of US Naval Forces.
· Cut 50% of the higher-level GO/Admiral/SES positions.
· Develop new War Fighting Commands
· Develop/redesignate new training and Support Logistical Commands!
· Redesign all Unified Commands
· Designate all Three Star Commands
· Designate Two Star and One Star Commands
· Modernize the Intelligence Commands
· Eliminate political appointees below the Secretary Level Appointees
· Consider the Global Joint Strike Force and Lily Pad Strategy
· Change the Department of Defense name to the Department of the Armed Forces of America
The formal choices, documents, and events that established the roles, missions, and functions of the U.S. Department of Defense (DoD) and the military services in the early postwar years are over 70 years old.
- The vision for the future must address all alternative roles, missions and courses of action.
- There is no single trigger for disputes, but interservice tensions are most associated with ownership of new capabilities or control of a significant function.
- Major DoD reorganization and reform efforts have often failed. President Trump needs to recall 4-6 Generals /Admirals as an action group to restructure the Military. Since WWII, the Pentagon has often failed to align and structure forces to win wars. Under the current structure and leadership, we have been unable to win any wars since 1945 and secure total victory over America’s war operations.
The Crisis in the Armed Forces[1]
A cold civil war is won or lost by the capture of institutions. Even today, many conservatives regard the military as one of the last institutions resisting capture by the new regime. Will Thibeau, director of the American Military Project at the Claremont Institute’s Center for the American Way of Life, argues that precisely the opposite is true: that the Armed Forces were “among the first American institutions to embrace the radical logic of group quotas formally. “This new organizing principle is directly linked to a steep decline in military standards and performance, with life-and-death consequences for Americans and America.
