Well let's see now. Since 1955 when the US first put troops in Vietnam until 2021 with the DISASTROUS embarrassment of the US pullout of Afghanistan, (that's 66 years BTW) we seem to be getting our troopers killed for nothing and our backsides handed to us by groups of people where the most technologically advanced weapons they have is our duds, what they capture from us, or what we leave behind. One group made shoes from our discarded vehicle tires and the other lives in a place so backward Alexander the Great didn't deem it worthy to conquer, wears man jammies, and put our own dud artillery rounds in the roads. I don't think our not having the fastest missiles on the planet is our biggest military issue. Could it be a congressional decision maker issue?? Just a thought though. Maybe I just got up on the wrong side of the bed this morning. IDK. Carry On!!
