We probably couldn’t field a force of 60,000 combat troops. That’s about 4 divisions. With the USMC that could go to 85,000.
Grand nephew is in his senior year and has been speaking with USMC recruiter. Scared to death but if he is going into any military service I guess he chose the best. At first I was hoping for Coasties but things could get bad fast with all those drug cartels.
I heard the cuts are to Special Forces.
