or may not, but that's something that you have to earn that opinion. You have to prove that out. We don't have enough competing force structures. It would be better if there was a group who was thinking about the future relevancy of the tank and a group trying to make the tank irrelevant.

You know, and that's what I saw with the Ukrainians not having a navy, which is they could conceive of this completely differently. You know, maybe we should have a navy one and navy two. It's a thought experiment. I wouldn't literally do it that way, but you can see how you need kind of these oppositional forces.

There's a reason the tank was invented by the UK Royal Navy, not by the UK's land forces. The tank was anathema to them. It was as heterodox to the platforms that they already had. And they viewed it as unnecessary and wrong. And can you imagine? They would have lost World War I without it.

I think that's probably one of the most important reforms. First of all, the person is the program. So stop thinking about these programs as independent of, do you have the right human to lead this? And by the way, once you get the right human, don't let them leave. We know this. The most important things, like the head of the nuclear reactor program in the Navy, it's an eight-year gig.

As you well know, most gigs in the military, they're like two to three years. There's a reason we made it an eight-year gig, because there's increasing returns to expertise, and it's a highly complicated thing, and you need continuity there. I actually think, in reality, there's many more things that look like that where you need continuity.

If you're in a role for two to three years, you don't even know you've made a mistake, let alone had the opportunity to learn from a mistake. When I think about the 19 years plus I've been a pounder, I have screwed so many things up. And I've had the ability to learn from all those things to make it better and better. It's just compounded over time.

If you somehow had someone do my role where we were just swapping every two to three years, I can't even imagine how much further behind we would have been. So that's one aspect of personnel. The second aspect is... With AI and the AI revolution, people think, oh, it's going to make the median person better. That's true. But it's going to make the very best person superhuman.
