What's the future of the US military? |
|
Who would want to enlist after the Iraq debacle?
Are our best and brightest going to look elsewhere after the US has sent their comrades to die in a no-win, honorless war? Are we going to have to resort to a peacetime draft to maintain sufficient numbers?
Would like to hear from DU vets.

4. Either the military is downsized or it will destroy the US economy |

since those that could downsize it are in deep denial about the unaffordability of US military ambitions I think you will get the later.
