Regional command structures aren’t bureaucratic clutter—they’re the muscle memory that keeps global deterrence from collapsing under political impulse.

Retired Navy Commander Bobby Jones and West Point History Professor Terrence Goggin circle a deeper truth about power that goes beyond any single administration: strategy fails fastest when loyalty is mistaken for competence. What’s at stake here isn’t whether one reform idea is good or bad, but whether complex systems can survive being flattened for convenience or ego. The danger they surface isn’t theoretical—it’s the cascading effect that follows when institutional knowledge is dismissed as obstruction. History doesn’t repeat itself cleanly, but it does punish amnesia, especially when law, alliances, and command structures are treated as branding exercises instead of safeguards. This conversation insists that constitutional durability isn’t passive—it’s something institutions, leaders, and citizens have to actively defend.
Tune in to Anchor Watch for a conversation that treats national security like a civic responsibility, not a talking point.
