He who masters the technology wins. As retired USAF, would you want your son flying off a carrier?

Well, I have a warrior spirit.

"Today is a good day to die."

My son doesn't. He likes to play it on video games, but he always tells me, "I'm not like you, Dad. I'm chicken."

But to answer your question, if he did, I'd be proud of him. Worried as Hell, but still proud.

I'm hoping the powers-that-be in the Military are aware of the changing dynamics. I've met a lot of stupid generals and admirals, but mostly, they're very smart men. I worry more about their stubbornness to established doctrine, and what 20 years of counter-insurgency has done to us.

Donald needs to keep pushing them, and they need to salute and say, "Yes Sir! Show us the money!"
