...had to have their focus sharpened.

I recal a thread this week where a poster wrote that our military is walking around with empty weapons in Kuwait.

As a Priviate E-2 at Ft. Benning in 1961, during the Cuban mistle thing, I walked guard duty with an empty M-1.

At Ft. Polk, in 1967, as Officer of the Day, I posted guards and NCO's on guard duty at the Post Armory, with empty weapons.

Has this kind of madness continued? Maybe it has. Tom
