Marine Corps ‘strong,’ but rest of military has weakened, report finds
By Sarah Sicard

While branch rivalry appears to be alive and well among troops serving in today’s military, a new study from the Heritage Foundation may have just outlined a definitive service ranking.

The big report, called the 2023 Index of U.S. Military Strength, found the entire U.S. military’s warfighting capabilities to be unusually deficient.

“In the aggregate, the United States’ military posture can only be rated as ‘weak,’” the report notes.

One branch, however, the U.S. Marine Corps, has managed to rise above the rest despite the collective failures outlined in the report.

There have been few positives about the military's ability to defend America recently. Shouldn't it get extra credit for being so proficient in CRT, gay rights, and pronouns? :whistle:
