In the event Communist China subs would be killed in 90 seconds by USNavy SSNs (except those missing US subs due to the treason of Eric Swalwell and Diane Feinstein).

Yeah, but we far outpace them in the number of military-age men who can make all kinds of fancy hand gestures at the camera.

The projected shortage real or conjectured, has nothing to do with Ukraine, but everything to do with recent Pentagon planning for short wars in 3rd world countries and buying munitions to match.

Sir,
I can assure you that my Active Duty Navy son and his shipmates are not fags, trannies or lesbians. Their leadership may be woke but the men and women on the teams and in the Fleet simply roll their eyes, salute and carry on. The same way I did when Clinton introduced “Don’t ask, Don’t tell” and his Grandfather did during Vietnam and his great Grandfather did aboard the USS Karnes in the Pacific Theater.

Also, there were no such things as “stress cards” that was a myth, they never existed. Has the Military changed the way they conduct certain aspects of Basic Training? Yes, but changes come with every generation. These kids will fight and perform well when the time comes.

Draining the strategic petroleum reserve should make things worse... What’s Biden’s next trick to help China and the Cartels...

He could send our manufacturing and money over there...oh wait, we already did that.

One viable strategy would be to sink or impound China’s cargo fleet on the first day.

Elon Musk, and his reusable SpaceX boosters, would be a strategic asset in any anti-satellite pissing contest.

[Feckless]

There would be a corresponding shortage of Chinese men and material.

Will a war with China last a week?🤔

[Forward the Light Brigade]

Time to go on a war footing and run the war factories 24/7 like Russia is doing. Something for illegal aliens to do—we need to sign up these Latin Americans too—we need whole units of Spanish Speaking troops to defend America if WW III should happen. We must be ready.

Toilets on warships are made out of stainless steel, you know like a prison.

Deindustrialization to a service slave economy has consequences......

[laplata]

Thanks. I guess I was wrong and we don’t have to worry about long range hypersonic missiles.

[central_va]

There is a lot of false hype about a lot of things on Free Republic.

[laplata]

That’s for sure.

BUMP

Seems to happen with every major war.
