Somebody posted a photo meme. The first photo was the defense ministers of Germany, Sweden, Denmark and Norway. All young, attractive women. They look like fashion models. Below was the photo of a serious, dangerous looking older man. It was labeled “The Russian Defense Minister.”

In thirty plus years, I have run across a handful of young, attractive women who were also extremely competent in their job. There were other women who were competent, forceful, good employees, but they were not fashion plates. I could accept that one of those women defense ministers was worth her weight and also that good looking. But all of them? It makes me wonder if Europe is serious about defense.

Will Europe pay us to reactivate the Second Fleet?

Will it pay its fair share for the Atlantic Command?

Russia is the least of Europe’s problems. The continent will done in by its divisions long before Russia invades it.

And the return to the Cold War mentality Washington wants is not welcomed in Europe.

Talk about totally stupid.

You put your command and control center well away from potential threats. That makes the “brain” safe.

But what about its logistics? Put that center where the Russians can get at it very easily. Remember the Soviet sponsored marches and near riots from the 1980’s?

Let me assure you, you can not fight sustained combat with the basic load wither it is on your back or in a ship’s magazine. Also, all of your pre-war planning factors are OUT TO LUNCH - see combat operations for the 17 years.

Guess the NATO idiots didn’t learn anything from France’s Force de Frappe from the early 1960s. Such an independent force is too expensive for a single nation state - too many vote buying schemes go non funded.
