*We have a recruiting crisis and the navy is kicking people out for weed / cbd and DUIs that don't result in bodily harm or property/ auto damage*.A rebel group with shytty drones is preventing an aircraft carrier from opening up a trade route.
An aircraft carrier is the pinnacle of any nations defense power and some third rate shooters have kept one from advancing in its goals.
And we have a recruitment crisis. The last thing America needs is ANOTHER L. Afghanistan and Iraq cost us trillions and achieved nothing for the average american. Oil isn't cheaper. People don't feel any safer, and OBL wasn't even in Afghanistan at the end of it all. Dude got killed in Pakistan.
This isn't 1953.
The only branch that is a-ok is the air force and that's because they care about their people.
