The string of three words sums it up best.
I started as a 12B in West Germany. By the time I left in 1992, they were already figuring out how to use the Bradley instead of the 113 at squad level.
The unit went from ten to twelve man squads, down to a five or six man “squad” to fight dismounted. From three to two line platoons in a company. From four line companies to three. And on and on.
The Bradley had more fancy gadgets and equipment; needing more maintenance, resulting in less availability.
Somewhere, all those Generals are smiling at their consulting salaries.

The Cold War didn't end, communism still lives and has come to America.
The Insurgency is going well, especially with the enemy at the table of every branch of our Federal, State, and Local Government.
