The substance of the Sgt. Majs remarks are worth a lot of thought. Can we keep all the balls in the air all the time everywhere? Are we keeping focused on protecting the nation? Are the personnel issues being resolved and in a timely manner?

With an active-duty Army of about 492,000 people, the service depends on the 120,000 National Guard and Reserve soldiers who are an important part of combating terrorism, he said.

Thank Bill Clinton.

His 1993 Reduction in Forces (RIF) Act reduced the U. S. Army by 40%. To justify these outrageous cuts, Army doctrine was amended to elevate the reserve components readiness in times of emergency.

Sandrat et al.:

Im in MIOBC out here and loving SE Arizona. I will be done 31 MAY 06 unless I can get into Counter Intelligence Class (35E).

Maybe some SE AZ Freepers can get together and we can eat at Dawns Pancake House or Cafe Ole for B-Fast?

I may get flamed, but mandatory service would be just fine with me. The more of my 17 yr old sons' classmates I meet convinces me they need a kick in the ass.
