You know, I don’t see this as an ‘unfortunately’ because in a SHTF-scenario it will do us good to have such trained violent men on our side. {On the other hand UNtrained can be infinitely better: you know what the professional soldier is going to do, it’s the amateur that’s unpredictable. That precept is exactly why the losses in Iraq were so high initially and then tapered down — our military had to ‘learn’ how to counter the unorthodox methods of its opponents.}
In a SHTF/CWII-scenario we will likely have to be even more unorthodox ourselves.
