“1,118 ordinance pieces against terrorist targets over the past FIVE MONTHS”

We dropped 18,000 +/- PER DAY for the first few days of Desert Storm.

This must be the Navy way of spilling the beans on Obama and ISIS

65% of all ISIS sorties return without attacking a target

Given the small amount of ordnance expended, our pilots are landing back on the carriers with full bomb load outs which is both very dangerous and very hard on the planes. Imagine what would happen if an FA -18 had a landing gear failure from repeated over stress of landing with full bomb loads and crashed on the deck of our newest super carrier with a full load of bombs on its bomb racks

This has to be demoralizing for our naval personnel
