She picked up an Israeli flag. Tied it in a knot and put it underneath a different flag. The guy hid an Israeli flag underneath a Palestinian flag.

Meanwhile at the Brussels tribute...

It's just about the context. Ike was explaining the reason for the MIC. I don't disagree that it requires balance and checks on their influence. But people only read the last part and think he was going all Smedly Butler.

Then you know not to be praising Ho Chi Minh in Little Saigon!!! ;)

Primarily a REMF so hats off to the grunts!

Actually it was just a Big Lebowski quote but some good points. Still Hanoi is pretty hardcore communist - read Phrog pilot Q Pham’s book about his dad being held in a re-education camp after the war.

Sure you’ll see some tank battles. But fighting in desert is very different from fighting in canopy jungle.

Worthy fucking adversary. The man in the black pajamas dude.

All good bro!

Yawn BTDT served for over 20 years active. Don’t really need a Kelsey Grammer movie to tell me about the military. saw the original 60 minutes, read the book, saw the movie anyway back then. What’s lame is people like you hold it up like a mantra of incompetence yet the Bradley Fighting Vehicle has served well for…

But then it would be the Triple T Tank!!! ;)

You know what else is funny? When people on FA who’ve never worn a uniform don’t think that guys who’ve spent most of their lives actually thinking about this and doing it haven’t thought of these things.

Yes. They know.

We still have tanks. But we also have Zulus with hellfires and F18s and AV8Bs with Mavericks

I mentioned it before. The ARG/ESG is more than one ship. The MEU is spread loaded across them. They still have LCACs. Just on the LSD or LPD.We did it before when we only had LPH’s that didn't have well decks either. It's making an issue when there really isn't one.

Not during Desert Storm. LAV-25 Bushmaster DU APDS >> T55s.

Ugh. The ESG has many options. A MEU or MEB is carried in 3-6 gator ships. LHD, LPD, LSD. AAVs LCACs even LCM. That’s the point. Some of the MAGTF can conduct vertical envelopment while others cross the shore. Embarked MAGTFs are not a one trick pony.

Because tanks still kick ass and come on the LCACs too.

Yeah and nobody on FA is supposed to read the Norwegian F16 pilots article saying the F35 will kick F16 ass.

Yea but they had time to repurpose. A peer competitor at the high end of the ROMO will be a come as you are war. No time to spin up the Arsenal of Democracy. That was Ike’s point.
