There has been a lot of talk in recent years about wokeness in the military. This confirms it.

Inside the ‘woke’ takeover of the US Air Force Academy
When I reported to the Air Force Academy, I knew it was where I belonged. I was ready to start my new life, ready to achieve my goals of becoming an officer and a pilot in the world’s greatest Air Force.
Leading up to my arrival at the academy , I always thought I would be surrounded by like-minded people: young men and women who love their country just as much as I do, men and women who want to see the survival and prosperity of our nation’s values in the face of rising adversaries. I’d like to preface this by saying that my initial thoughts proved to be true: Roughly 95% of the people I have met at the Air Force Academy care about this nation’s values and want to see them flourish for years to come. However, one bad apple tends to spoil the bunch, and the leftist ideologies, including critical race theory and diversity, equity, and inclusion trainings, being forced upon us by academy leadership have divided the cadet wing from within, in a profession where unity is essential.
