“Well, Governor, we also have fewer horses and bayonets, because the nature of our military has changed”

Remember that ‘zinger’....except the Army still has Bayonets. Apparently nobody in camp Obama knew that (including the ‘factcheckers’).
Now, that level of ignorance scares me.

Now, that level of ignorance scares me.

And the lib morons that eat that up scares me. I know, I've got lib relatives harping like seals after Obama said that.

You can't have too many knives.

Yep, you’re correct about bayonets. They’re standard issue with combat gear. So, bayonet ratio vs combat troop is still 1:1, same as always. About the number of ships in the navy; china is flexing its muscles in the pacific and has a goal of having a deep water navy. So, our navy’s role and responsibilitys have increased and not decreased. But, maybe not in obamas eyes.......

So do the USMC and the SEALS.

Hand to hand still happens, perhaps in Benghazi.

Soldiers and MARINES are not game pieces, even if ObaMa/Jarrett think they are, no?
