So should the manpower of all US military branches expand forever?
And by they way, 20,000 Marines aren’t waking up tomorrow to find out they’ve been kicked out - that’s not how it’s done (gradually). Some will retire, many will simply complete their enlistments and leave of their own volition, poor performers who want to re-enlist won’t be allowed to, and recruiting standards will be raised resulting in fewer Marines being inducted.
Are you serious?
Troops are being reduced in all services as we speak...it’s being done, pal.
A greater financial burden is also being increased on the military and retirees by this admin. When Obutthead speaks of spending cuts he’s willing to entertain, it’s solely from the military which, BTW, is the primary function of the fed govt., not free stuff for lazy a**es. But that’s what got him re-elected...
Who are you?
