Have WP write a Torch paper. He needs to understand how our European strategy unfolded

I was kind of doomed from the start - I wrote a paper about Torch in the 7th Grade. I guess I ended up where I belong.

Are you Army or Air Force?
I guess Army.

Definitely an officer

This should not happen. The Marines earn their pay.

His point is that we avoid foreign entanglements. That we are more judicious in our use of force. That we do not end up occupying other countries after worthless adventures. That we focus more on diplomacy. That the Air Force responsibilities could be transferred to a reserve component (ANG or USAFR). Understand the argument he is making (which is very sound from a historical standpoint) before you call someone idiot.
Contractors go where the money is. Just like education and healthcare. So curb the appetite and take away the means to spend money. That will hep reduce fraud, waste and abuse.
You both are idiots to think you can maintain being a military superpower without an Army and an Air Force.

At least WP did some copy and pasting stuff.

I just this past week donated my first edition Patton Papers that I got in 1974 to the local military museum.
The planning for OVERLORD dates to 1940.

You are an embarrassment. But at least you do copy and paste from time to time. Congrats.

I am glad to be blowing up this pathetic subject since no fricking way will the active Army or Air Force be disbanded.

Tell me from your vast military experience how you can win a war by getting rid of the Army and Air Force and building up the Navy? Please tell me where you make sense of this. You'd send in the Marines with Air Support from a carrier then what? Serious question have you ever served?

You have this bizarre need to take decent discussions and turn them into a steaming pile of stupidity. But don't worry, we respect you for that skill.

I guess the reason I am up some of your asses is because I advocate that the US cut Israel loose to be crushed into oblivion the way it so richly deserves.

Active Duty, Reserve, or NG?

No, it is bothersome that you are such a moron and yet somehow were actually commissioned. The fact you want to be acquainted with goldenugget and Ghazi does not bother me in the least bit.
