We may laugh now, but I look at the U.S. military of the 1970's, and I cry. Remember, we weren't able to free hostages taken by Iranian college students because of what the Democrats did to the defense budget under Carter (and Ford, to be fair, but the Dems were in control of the purse strings).
We may no longer have a 200-ship U.S. navy before we're much older, and the zoomies will be flying hangar queens too expensive to actually fight anyone because we won't buy enough to send anywhere. So much for our military history.
yes our miltary did suck back then but we still would have pwnd many countries. i asked someone a marine about those pictures and he does beleive that the first picture was a stolen boat and it was being used by the cuban navy.
Are you sure that isn't the Canadian army?
