""The Army and Marines Corps will no longer need to be sized to support the kind of large-scale, long-term military operations that have dominated military priorities and force generations over the past decades," Panetta said, adding that forces will have to become more flexible and adaptable to conflicts around the globe." So...our armed forces will no longer be able to fight a sustained duration war. What other kinds of war will there be if you're not willing to bomb the piss out of them and get it over with quickly? |
