The answer:

The Army is too FLIPPIN small.

It needed all along to remain at 18 divisions before idiot clinton sliced it to free up pork barrel money.

With those 18 divisions we could fight 2 wars simultaneously AND do rotations AND do R&D.

This I completely agree on. Why President Bush didn't push for an increase in size after 9/11 - I've never heard a good explanation.

As is the navy. Both need to be roughly doubled in size.
