Oldie but a goodie… “amateurs study tactics while masters study logistics”.

The “logistics” of the USA with regard to the “human-resources” is in such a state of dis-regard and ill-preparedness that should the need arise to institute a draft (which would be the case in ANY near-peer fight), the US Mil would fail.

Never mind that we no longer have the industrial capacity to out-build these adversaries, we no longer have the people to build the machines, let alone operate these weapons.

Our “infantry” are little more than glorified mall cops with machine-guns. Their “leadership” are ticket-punching morons who would be hard-pressed to lead a dead horse to the ground.

I just re-watched Band of Brothers, and there is NO way we could field that army again today. We are too weak of mind and body.

Grave times ahead……
