Our military: low on personnel, deterrence and ammo
By Mike McDaniel
A venerable military axiom is: amateurs discuss tactics; professionals discuss logistics. Not only is it essential a military safely gets troops where they need to be, rested and on time with the right weapons, but more importantly, there must a supply chain that ensures they have all the ammunition they’re going to need, all the food, and other technology and supplies to ensure they can prevail. Correct, innovative tactics are necessary. Correct logistics are everything.
Donald Trump tells us he rebuilt our military. He’s right. Kamala Harris and Joe Biden have all but destroyed it. They imposed racism against whites, DEI, Wokeness and every other Democrat/socialist/communist (D/s/c) philosophy with predictable results. Higher ranking officers, and others lacking honor and fidelity to the Constitution embraced the lunacy, knowing if they didn’t, they wouldn’t be promoted, or would be drummed out of the military on fake charges. That was the fate of patriots who tried to stand up to the steady destruction of our forces.
It took awhile, but so obvious were their tactics, the traditional source of our all-volunteer force, midwestern and southern white males, who have done the majority of fighting and dying for America, decided they were done, and recruitment dramatically dropped. Even our merchant marine is forced to sideline 17 ships vital to the resupply of our Navy due to a lack of personnel. The only service that thus far hasn’t seen terrible recruiting problems is the Marines, who have apparently resisted the insanity somewhat better than the other services.
