Use of the terms "warfighter" or "warfighting" is one of the biggest red flags in my life due to the industry I'm in. Big cringe. Might as well just say "I wanna make the world more White and Christian. I'm not in the military but love tacticool fashion. 'Murrica."
whiffs of 'crusade'
Or might as well say "Yes, I like money and want to sell to the DoD." Source: may have used it in a slide deck once. Not actually sure, as the phrase wasnt as popular back then.
