Me & Obama finally agree 100%! Send those young snot nosed liberals to BOOT CAMP!

Maybe in someone else's army, not ours!

The whole idea behind our "all volunteer army" was to increase retention of trained troops. It takes a lot of training before today's typical youth can be trusted with million dollar high tech gear. An army of conscripts is more or less useless as we no longer need "cannon fodder". A draft would put us back twenty to thirty years with "grunts" doing two years and out.

Maybe that's the plan, sabotage the military by undermining the skill level of the troops?

Regards,
GtG

I understand. But I would just like to see liberals in boot camp... any type of boot camp!
