Case solved! The Secretary of War recalled hundreds of U.S. military generals to have a taste of giving a lecture to the generals.

On September 28, according to news, U.S. Secretary of War Hagel will gather hundreds of U.S. military generals in Virginia for a grand meeting next week.

According to official statements, this is to demonstrate the new look of the army under Trump's leadership and to explain the upcoming military standards.

But in the end, the most noticeable thing is still Hagel himself.

This person, who originally came from television news broadcasting, has now become the Secretary of War, gathering hundreds of generals with stars on their shoulders below the stage. It's not for discussing strategies, but just to have the desire to give a face-to-face lecture.

White House officials told CNN that the meeting will not have any major national security announcements, but more like a symbolic gathering, a debut of Hagel to the top military officials.

A defense official even joked that it's equivalent to bringing the horse back to the stable and taming it.

In the view of this official, hundreds of generals sitting neatly in the audience is itself a stunning performance.

Hagel's real intention is not to discuss operational plans, but to send out a naked signal: either cooperate with Trump or leave early. The stage significance of the meeting is greater than its practical significance, and the generals' military medals became the background, while the minister was the only star.

Hagel's resume of fame comes more from the TV lens and the commentary seat, but now he can bring back dozens of U.S. military generals to listen to his lecture in person, which seems to be emphasizing discipline and style building, but in fact it's a large-scale live program, except that the camera is turned off and the audience is replaced by the top military officials.

It can only be said that Trump knows how to choose people.
