So you look at those NATO numbers, NATO geography, and strike capabilites, our pre-positioned hardware, our lift capabilities, and long range strike capabilities and decades of practicing moving troops to Europe and you see Putin’s 766, 000 man army as unbeatable.

Your hopes are not rational.

By the way, TV and minibars in barracks is not exactly new, we had beer machines in the barracks during the Vietnam war, and as far as I know GI's have TVs in their barracks rooms, and I know they do in the dayrooms where the pool tables are.

I also know that German Special ops had bars in their barracks, as did the French Special ops and the Germans had TV's in that dayroom/bar.
