This is not how we should use our military personnel. Boots on the ground to fight the ebola virus. Air strikes against the dreaded ebolas. Why didn't we try sanctions first?
“This is not how we should use our military personnel.”
President Clinton declared war on AIDS in Africa and deployed combat units to “fight” it. I recall seeing photos of a Marine in combat dress diapering a baby. Democrats love declaring war on something and sending in the military to handle social issues. Clinton shifted the military spares budget to handle his various causes with the result being that after 8 years on any given day half of the Air Force and Navy planes could not fly for want of a critical item. Many of the companies that supplied these spares went out of business so the next procurement was doubly expensive.
