Today's Army is not the Army of the 60's and 70's. Today's Army is better... better training, better standards, and programs that help get rid of the poor performers.

Well I think it depends on where each of us served during this time.
While I will agree there were many problems, a lot were institutional and not because of the caliber or potential of the folks in uniform. I do not have the time this morning to share my observations, but I will later if you are interested in my limited and personal opinions.
