Post-Vietnam guilt

The guilt doesn’t seem to work towards staying out of undeclared/unwon wars.

US Reserve Forces In The News

Will there ever come a time when newspeople ask if there is any military emergency, national emergency, draft, or declaration of war, linked to the movement of US Reserve Forces to an overseas location?

Decades after the lessons of Vietnam, the Pentagon seems to specialize in undeclared/unwon wars.

Both major political parties are good with it.

Reserve recruiters are looking for people who will need to maintain a place to live and a regular job in their hometown area when they are not doing time in foreign lands helping DOD with undeclared/unwon wars.

A few decades back, people might think of the reserves as one weekend a month and two weeks in the summer.

The reserves are a standard part of US military deployments these days.

The US should maintain strong and ready military forces.

Look for newspeople and school teachers to ask zero questions in this area:

How Do The Troops Defend The Constitution?

Not asking about the oath of enlistment. Asking about what happens after the oath has been taken.

Love to see newspeople interview elected officials and let us know how sending US Troops to Syria, Lebanon, Somalia, Vietnam, Afghanistan, Iraq, Bosnia, etc., is somehow defending the constitution.
