Despite still being involved in both Iraq and Afghanistan, President Obama is moving ahead with plans to cut our armed forces by twelve brigades of soldiers, cutting forces from 45 brigades to 33. Obama wants to cut the size of our forces by 80,000 troops.
Obama plans to eliminate troops at 10 Army bases by 2017, quite despite world affairs. With China rising, a nuclear armed North Korea, terrorists still active, and no telling what other situations the country will find, Obama has already slated two brigades in Germany for elimination.
Several bases will be hardest hit. Bases such as Fort Knox, Kentucky. CBS reported that other bases will also be hit.

ReplyDeleteLOL! Nothing left there to guard!
Why is anyone complaining about this? Don't all you conservatives want smaller government and less spending? Well here you go.
ReplyDeleteTrue we do want smaller government and less spending. I say we start eliminating assistance to the 3rd, 4th, and 5th generation welfare recipients first.
