Thank you, Mr. Chair.
Thank you to the witnesses for coming.
I'd like to keep exploring that part a little bit, and you touched on it, General Semianiw, when you talked about merit boards and career managers and so on. There is a role here that we really haven't talked about too much, and that is the role of career managers, the role of merit boards, the role of upward mobility by means of promotion, which is based on merit and not just qualifications.
Could you comment a little bit on the role of the career manager and on the oversight of the chain of command within the career management organization that ensures, to whatever extent, that it is fair and that the right people are advanced?
