Rot in the Air Force?

WASHINGTON (AP) — The Air Force stripped an unprecedented 17 officers of their authority to control — and, if necessary, launch — nuclear missiles after a string of unpublicized failings, including a remarkably dim review of their unit's launch skills. The group's deputy commander said it is suffering "rot" within its ranks.

"We are, in fact, in a crisis right now," the commander, Lt. Col. Jay Folds, wrote in an internal email obtained by The Associated Press and confirmed by the Air Force.

This is disturbing. Is it a Command problem?  What about the Senior NCO's who are supposed to be back stopping the junior officers?  And is this evidence of the US Military's decline under the Obama Administration?  With the firing of several General Officers, the arrest of the Anti-Sexual Abuse Officer for Sexual Abuse.  Is this just one more sign of the bad morale and bad leadership?
