It is crystal clear to me this nation’s conventional military leaders have their heads up you know where plus this PC/MC BS has depleted the military of it’s best and brightest senior combat leaders. This country’s best advised and armed those same Afghans against the Russians years earlier. Yes, it was we/us who showed them how to blow the hell out of track and wheeled vehicles. The Russian army was defeated and decimated by using the very same tactics that our idiotic mech Infantry, armor plus every other American commander has by riding up and down MSR’s and every road in each damn country. These same stupid mistakes are what got the Russians blown to hell too. These vets missing legs and arms usually do not get such massive injuries from bullets or shrapnel. These injuries are blast injuries using enough explosives to blow the hell out of APC’s and even tanks. We trained them to watch the roads/MSR’s (main supply routes) and to then set up shaped charges to blow the hell out of the Soviets. This is what has happened to OUR men and their female comrades. Make no damn mistake it is/was these same stupid tactics and our idiotic rules of engagement (ROE’s) that got many American soldiers and marines killed and wounded. If one looks at Afghan after 9/11 one recalls an SF A team jumped into Afghan and linked up with the Northern alliance. Next another team jumped in and linked up with Karzai. The damn fighting did not last long. In the meantime Bush sends Marines in to a non conventional war. This is FACT. Now our military if full of those who could not meet the standards 20-30 years ago. This make time for lactation, queers, lesbians and you name it will never win. We must get back to what made our military great again. We can ill afford this PC/MC/AA military.

I agree with you. My concern is societal. One of the symptoms of the decline of Rome was an unwillingness of young men to serve in the military. I see that now in the United States. We have far too many ‘leaders’ who stayed home and watched young women their age deploy to combat.
