Thinking as Veterans, how concerned are you about the preparedness of the Military with even more equipment being shipped to Ukraine?

I have not seen any of our most advanced tactical vehicles, I am relatively sure everything so far has been on a chopping block, or mothballed at sone depot.

Either way I am concerned about readiness for more obvious reasons as indicated in the current state of recruitment and retention. Our society once reflective of our population shows that there are limits to a voluntary force. Since the services do make up society, you have to ask yourself where is society going, Home, schools, neighborhoods, children’s programs, all have been effected by the current undertone of our communities and their leaders. We are woefully equipped through manpower and the ability to mold from a die that does not have the base required to fight and win.

I am not trying to be an alrmest, but until our society reflects the sense of pride, duty, honor, country as a guide (that still exists within the force)they will not be able to sustain the for es required.

Whether anyone wishes to admit it, without the threat (globa) of the most feared military on the planet our global issues will trend right along with us. Where we were once reverted or feared, we are often jeered.

I love the USA.

Not at all. We aren't sending the good stuff currently in use. It is either old/outdated or made to order for them. Our military aid to Ukraine does almost nothing to our readiness.


..... So far.
