That is the humbling statement of Joint Chief of Staff, General Mark Milley. He regrets taking the walk that ended up with President Trump’s controversial June 1st photo op. The event took place on the grounds of St. Johns Episcopal Church, just moments after the peaceful protesters were dispersed with tear gas and pepper spray, The impression was one of a military intervention.

Three days later Milley used the opportunity of his National Defense University commencement address to make his personal position distinct from the image being offered by the White House. Milley admitted that the military should not ever be used in domestic matters. He offered his apology to the world along with advice to the graduates from an Army officer of 40 years.

According to Milley, he thought the purpose of the outdoor press event was to inspect the damage that the Church had received from rioters earlier in the week. It was not known what effect Milley’s public statement will have on his military career. He certainly has risked the wrath of the president who resents any criticism directed his way, but Miley has cleared things up.

Remarks

“As many of you saw the result of the
photograph of me at Lafayette Square
last week, that sparked a national
debate about the role of the military in
civil society. I should not have
been there,”

“My presence in that moment
and in that environment created a
perception of the military involved in
domestic politics,” Milley added. “As a
commissioned uniformed officer,
it was a mistake that I have learned
from, and I sincerely hope we
all can learn from it.”

“We must hold dear the principle
of an apolitical military that is so
deeply rooted in the very essence
of our republic,” stated Milley.
“It takes time and work and effort,
but it may be the most important
thing each and every one of us
does every single day.”

#63 FRI GEM 6/14/1946 Donald Trump	#39 WED GEM 6/18/1958 General Mark Milley

Donald Trump was born on a Friday in the zodiac sign of Gemini. Venus is the ruler of his INNER SELF and Mercury governs his OUTER SELF. Trump’s #63 FRI GEM Dayology Signature has been analyzed in many of his professional and personal relationships listed in The Presidential File. The point to keep in mind is that both these important figures have Gemini Sun Signs, and this fact appears to have clouded General Milley’s judgement on this particular occasion.

General Mark Milley was born on a Wednesday in the zodiac sign of Gemini. This means that Mercury is the doubled ruler of his INNER and OUTER selves, although the planet responds somewhat differently in the two realms. An INNER Wednesday is basically aware and alert. A Mercury ruling an OUTER Gemini is a good communicator or researcher, however on occasion it can become confused or compromised regarding worldly issues.

Milley is a U.S. Army general and the 20th Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff. As the highest ranking and most senior military officer in the U.S. Armed Forces, he is the principal military advisor to the President, the National Security Council, the Homeland Security Council and the Secretary of Defense. Today the duties of this position ensure the personnel readiness, policy, planning and training of their respective military services.

Individuals with the same planetary ruler for their INNER and OUTER selves are all or nothing types. They tend not to get involved unless they can see themselves completing the task successfully. When the doubled ruler is Mercury, as in the Dayology signature of General Miley, there is a strong need feel to feel that they are informed and correct in their opinions.
