‘Woke’ military academies targeted in new blueprint for sweeping warfighting overhaul

Fox News · 2 hours ago

A conservative advocacy group has published a blueprint calling for sweeping reforms to America's military service academies and war colleges, urging Congress to permanently write the Trump administration's military education changes into law. The group argues these institutions have become too similar to civilian universities and should instead focus on training officers as warfighters rather than, as the report puts it, "philosophers and future bureaucrats." The push reflects a broader conservative campaign to reshape military culture and education, which supporters frame as necessary to restore focus on combat readiness.

The 12-page document, obtained first by Fox News Digital, was produced by Restoration America and its CEO Doug Truax, a West Point graduate and Army veteran. The proposal seeks to codify reforms already introduced under the Trump administration, ensuring they remain in place regardless of future changes in leadership or political control of Congress. The article does not detail every specific reform recommended within the blueprint.
