Greg Abbott rapidly mobilizing thousands of troops to patrol the state\u2019s border with Mexico. The Texas Army Guard\u2019s former top enlisted soldier and troops on the border described problems with the mission, including benefits cuts, poor living conditions and inadequate time to settle civilian affairs. Although suicide is an individual and complex phenomenon that can\u2019t be attributed directly to the mission, this story sparked a wave of national scrutiny on Operation Lone Star\u2019s hasty mobilization and living conditions. Four months later, three current or former two-star generals abruptly departed the Texas Military Department. (Maj.

The shifts followed a congressionally ordered review of the test by the think tank Rand. Active duty and active Guard Reserve troops will begin taking the for-record test on Oct. 1, 2022, and will have six months to pass an ACFT before it is incorporated into promotion points and used as grounds for kicking soldiers out of the Army beginning April 1, 2023. If they fail during that period, soldiers will be flagged. For part-time soldiers, the record testing period will begin April 1, 2023, and troops will have a year to pass an ACFT. (Andrew D.
