Water/concrete/mixer/vehicle to haul said concrete and material/40 hours of uninterrupted work time and then cure time/what type of roof?/doors.....sounds impractical to me . When I served I bedded down with my poncho and sleeping bag in mother natures landscape and was usually never seen (was with the scouts) I liked that as opposed to barracks or grouping close.

you’re also talking fully tactical. They’re looking at fixed bases to begin with - which also have their purpose.

They also aren’t talking about civy 5*8 hour days to get 40 hours, but rather a start one morning, and ready to move in the night after that.

Double walls with fill in between would be really tough.

I did the same when a USMC infantryman. But now the infantry’s gonna have wimmin in it. Everything changes.

It’s a good thing we’ve already gotten out of the habit of expecting to win wars.
