In fact, the United States government has hyper-spaced to all other nations in the robotic warfare realm. We now have unmanned aerial vehicles which can do aerial refueling by themselves.

Not one. So, why is there a need for the multi-million dollar Non-Destructive Evaluation Automated Inspection System that is 99.8% effective in keeping "defective body armor plates from being reissued to Soldiers"?

When it comes to approving a months-old request from his beleaguered general in Afghanistan to increase troops in an eight-years-and-running war to support the dying soldiers already there, Obama engages in leisurely stargazing. Never mind that only a wee percentage of funds are seeping out eight months after the stimulus bill was passed, health care legislation wouldn't start until 2013, and the 2016 Summer Olympics don't take place for seven years. Those items were all at the top of Obama's to-do list.

Net-centric warfare theory predicts that you must control the air if you wish to control the battle. Of course, to completely win a war you also must control the ground.

Despite what some say about 'Hollywood Marines' and the idea that training in San Diego is any easier than training on the East Coast, the fact is, both are going to be the toughest 13 weeks of every recruits life.

You probably are worried that it is going to be like visiting hell for 13 weeks and that you will fail to succeed in becoming a full-fledged Marine. It will be tough, but just imagine how proud you will be of yourself once you are in the Marines.

This is also the only place where women are trained to become Marines.

Nations or villages were forced to try to fight off the invaders, but often had no chance being out numbered and over powered. As these armies destroyed the villages and towns in their path they took the valuables, raped the women, and moved on.

While many of us served in the military, few were ever involved in a shooting war except those old enough to be part of the Korean "policing action." However, our generation (born between 1930 and 1945) grew up with the belief that it was our duty to serve if called. We considered it the patriotic thing to do. Younger generations don't understand the notion of a popular war - one where the populace believed we needed to win no matter what. Unfortunately, the United States has not experienced true victory since WWII. That was nearly 65 years ago.
