The EFV is not a "sea-going tank". As usual, the media couldn't tell a tank from a doorknob!

Duh...it has a turret with a gun-thingy and tracks and it is made of metal...gee it gotta be a tank!

The concept of the EFV is good, but the technology challenge is audacious. Just like the Osprey, that all of the budget-cutting nimrods attack, and the CH-47 from the pre-Viet Nam war era, they were ahead of their time.

But, we have to make a choice. Do we provide our Marines with the proper tools to enhance their survival and success, or do we use that money to pay-off the Union Thugs like the UAW, NEA, SEIU, etc.?

I’ve heard Bradleys and Paladins called “tanks.”

Ignorance is bliss, what can you say.

I don’t expect much military knowledge from “journalists” who mostly hate the military.

If they do a decent job of reporting the congressional proceedings, that’s about all I expect.

That would depend on who is going to prevail, Leftists or Patriots?
