了解一下美国历史上的 国防部长

Of the 21 men who have been appointed Secretary of Defense over the last 64 years, seven have come from the Navy, with seven from the Army, and one from the Air Force. (With Donald Rumsfeld, who served 13th and 21st defense secretary, counted just once for the Navy).

More than one in four defense secretaries, however, never served in the Armed Forces, or six of 21 (29 percent). 

Four of these six men without military service were appointed by Republican presidents: Charles Wilson (Eisenhower), Neil McElroy (Eisenhower), James Schlesinger (Nixon), and Dick Cheney (George H.W. Bush).

Harold Brown (appointed by Carter) and William Cohen (Clinton) also never served. (Brown had been a consultant to the Air Force Scientific Advisory Board from 1956-1957, a member of the Board from 1958 to 1961, and Secretary of the Air Force from 1965 to 1969).

当初他提名JD Wance做副总统候选人你们这些人不也是冷嘲热讽，现在一个个脸被打的痛吧！

P大毕业的，说明爬藤还是加分的，大藤抵三级军衔，

当年Rumsfeld 当防长的时候也是40多岁，也没有当过将军，也是P大毕业的。

这话说的，新闻评论员为啥不能当国防部长？雷根是演员能当总统，还算是美国最伟大的总统之一。泽连斯基也是演员，总统不也是当的好好的。当年越战的国防部长麦克拉马拉好像是福特汽车的CEO，国防部长不干了之后好像还去世界银行当了行长。
