Senior officers in the U.S. military are preparing after reports of a potential new review process for top generals, a review they fear will vet personal loyalty to President-elect Donald Trump.
"While the exact details of the proposed review board were unclear -- including who would serve as the arbiters of a general's leadership, though they would be appointed directly by the White House and would be veterans --
the senior uniformed military community immediately responded with concern that their commitment to avoiding politics would not be able to hold.

"The creation of a separate review process reporting directly to Trump that is outside of the existing job performance system could impose a chilling loyalty test --
not to the Constitution or military code, but to a president known for prioritizing personal loyalty, currently serving generals and defense officials interviewed say."
