Heritage Foundation Raises U.S. Army Power Ranking
Thursday, October 04, 2018
The Heritage Foundation, a Washington, D.C.-based conservative public policy group, has raised its assessment of the U.S. Army’s fighting power largely because of improvement in combat readiness.
Once called “weak†by the Heritage Foundation in its annual Index of U.S. Military Strength, the research and educational institution’s 2019 assessment gives the Army an overall “marginal†rating. The Army is “strong†on readiness, “marginal†on capability but “weak†on capacity, Heritage says.
The 2018 Heritage assessment rated the Army as “weak,†saying it was “weak†on capacity and readiness and “marginal†on capability.
