Chief: The Army has to start preparing for 'the big war'
By: Meghann Myers   5 days ago

In order to meet the threat, the service is going to have to revamp its equipment, from ground vehicles and helicopters to communications systems and individual soldier gear, he told an audience at an AUSA event outside Washington, D.C.
