Yeah, I don't know if that's a quote from the movie or your own opinion, but I'll disagree.
A private in the Army or Marine Corps has no more say in how to win a war than the person that installs the lug nuts on the assembly line has say in whether the car is a piece of shit or not.
It's the generals that A) only know how to fight the LAST war and B) bend a knee to the civilian "leaders" that want nothing more of the military than to use it as a social experiment to test out all of their woke theories for the rest of us.
