This started with the all voluntary military and the elimination of the draft. Women were never subjected to the draft to begin with, then they were enticed to join, not out of patriotism, but for the chance to get free career training and lifetime benefits. So this article is not prescient it was on the way, way back then. For a person to understand the condition of the U.S Military, just take a look at the common daily fatigues. They all wear military scrubs and that' because they are all so fat that they can't fit into a Class A uniform. Are any of us old enough to remember what a real soldier or sailor looked like when we saw them in airports and train stations across the country as they traveled to their assignments? They were always proudly decked out in their finest uniforms and admired by the public. Now, they all have to look identical, including the fat guy General Milley who is number one. Rather than dress up in public, they all dress down to hide the fact that they are out of shape. America is not prepared or capable of successfully carrying out successful conventional warfare. Don't look to experts to explain this, just let your lying eyes tell you. We have a military of logisticians not fighters. We are supposed to believe that we are defended by Navy Seals and Army Rangers and many people have taken the bait. Instead we are an army of cooks, truckers, mechanics , recruiters and a number of other positions not capable of combat operations. If we have to engage in a conventional war our troops will not be comprised of 10,000 Navy Seals, or Army Rangers or Special operations troops because we don't have anywhere near those numbers. Now most of our non fat eligible recruits are eliminated by their dependence on ADHD drugs or chronic cannabis use. So take a look at the millions of 120 lb Chinese soldiers who march in May Day type parades and can live on 5 pounds of rice for a month and look like robot killing machines. Then take a look at 600-700 thousand women and minorities who only signed up for all of the free stuff and are not combat ready. America has no professional soldiers other than a few Seals and Rangers.
