Grendel as a Universal Infantry Cartridge

OK -- I just have to ask.

How many RIFs did you live through in your Army career?

How about showing us proof that boards are in the process of removing Officers and NCO's who are 'non-compliant'.

I am sure that since you believe a 'purge' of 'non-compliant' officers is going on, that you can link us to a Dept of the Army web site that has a copy of this compliancy list and states how to look at a 201 file or OER and determine if an Officer is or is not 'compliant'.

Army Times has had a number of cover articles over the last 6 weeks on the shrinking size of the US Army.

The real problem is that we are pulling back. We may no longer afford to project power abroad.

The Islamists moved to fill the void in the power vacuum left after the collapse of the Soviet Union. I have wondered who would fill the void if we no longer are a super power. My guess is that China will take our place. It will be then that most of the resources in the world will come under the control of either China or the Islamists. And we will have to decide who we seek to be ruled by.
