Many of these NG guys were enlisted on the premise that they would only be needed for domestic emergencies and/or if the country were invaded-


actually Clinton changed the force to depend on the reserve units instead of the already existing active units..


You are right-and many good people/experience was lost-- but many of these folks enlisted before his time-and Rummy continued/extended the plan of the lighter/faster army....But Clinton also didn't sent them into Iraq without a plan on what to do once there- or when and how to get out when the s*** hits the fan in a civil/sectarian war......

Last I heard, the 9~11 attacks happened on US soil, so we were attacked here at home.

Clinton DID leave the 82D hanging in Somalia. Remember the Mogadishu Mile?

If you have any investments of any kind, chances are you are profiting from Big Oil, too.
