You talk of a take over of the Minuteman, B-2... Not only does the Navy aslo have ballistic experience, the author doesn’t say replace the personnel, just change the command structure. I still don’t understand what you feel would be lost, other than a uniform.
I ask because there is a world of difference in how those assets are viewed and used. The author doesn't seem to understand any of this. His article is simplistic to the point of being a joke.
