Back in the good old days we had that many troops just in the Fulda Gap.

It was acknowledged by all that they were just a speed bump.

President Cruz, President Walker, even President Fiorina would accept the proposal. President Obama? Holdest thou not thy breath.

But first, the Pentagon must acknowledge LGBT pride. Yes, to tell the world how diversified and tolerant and PC our armed forces are!

But what the world hears is that the United States is no longer serious about defense - our own or anyone else’s.

The Pentagon and the White Mosque really are the laughingstock of the world. Truly despicable.

Can you imagine if Russia put such weaponry in Haiti or Mexico, for example?

As NATO faces a resurgent Russian military, a substantial number of Europeans do not believe that their own countries should rush to defend an ally against attack, according to a comprehensive survey to be made public on Wednesday.

NATO’s charter states that an attack against one member should be considered an attack against all, but the survey points to the challenges the alliance faces in trying to maintain its cohesion in the face of an increasingly aggressive Russia.

“At least half of Germans, French and Italians say their country should not use military force to defend a NATO ally if attacked by Russia,” the Pew Research Center said it found in its survey, which is based on interviews in 10 nations.

Last I heard, the media thinks a Glock 19 pistol is “heavy weaponry”. So, I don’t know whether to believe any of this.

Gee, it seems another World War would be just the emergency Barry needs to stay in office.

This is what is needed to prevent the Russian dictators from eventually regaining the empire, to be able to launch a WWIII.

In a significant move to deter possible Russian aggression in Europe, the Pentagon is poised to store battle tanks, infantry fighting vehicles and other heavy weapons for as many as 5,000 American troops in several Baltic and Eastern European countries, allied officials say.

I'm sure the Russians are quaking in their boots.

Obama is probably sending in a brigade of faggots too

All of this is from the DOD website.

Lots of purging will be necessary.

Facts of the Day June 12, 2015 When she was promoted to brigadier general on August 10, 2012, Army Reserve officer Tammy Smith became the first general officer in the U.S. military to be openly gay while serving. During Smith's promotion ceremony, her wife, Tracey Hepner, pinned the general star onto her uniform. Smith, who had been in the military for 26 years at the time, served as the director for Army Reserve Human Capital.

It should be more like 100,000 troops. With full missile defense and forward air capabilities to boot.
