"It's really just a very nice meeting talking about how we're all doing militarily, talking about being in great shape, talking about a lot of good, positive things. Last week, Hegseth called on hundreds of military leaders, stationed all over the world, to travel for the meeting with top Pentagon officials. Senior military leaders were not informed about the purpose of the meeting, NBC reported. The Congressional Research Service said that all 800 senior officers carrying the rank of brigadier general and above are required to attend the meeting.
