As a military veteran, I am disgusted that such a highly-thought-of figure OF ANY RACE should voice support for a man who clearly dislikes the military to an extraordinary extent.
BTW - Powell, from his graduation from the academy, was a "political officer". One only has to look at his military career progression to see he was one of those being groomed for higher positions as a way to show how "elevated" the military was in a time it was undergoing a great deal of political heat on racial policies.
From Wikipedia:
A STAFF position - not to ignore his previous tour when he actually was in combat.major in 1968, serving in the Americal Division (23rd Infantry Division), then as assistant chief of staff of operations for the Americal Division
He then goes on to a White House fellowship, continue to show his sponsor's political agenda for him.

I am NOT saying that Powell was not a qualified officer who performed his duties in an outstanding manner. In fact, I thought he was a superb as National Security Adviser, Chief of Staff, and Secretary of State.
It just shocks me that he can be so otherwise blind as to what Obama has done and will do to the military and our national defense.
Clearly? Then you should be able to point out evidence supporting your assertion that Obama dislikes the military.
