I tend to wonder if we can beat them man for man too.

I was watching a special about the invasion on the Discovery Channel, I believe, and time after time i noticed PISS POOR MILITARY PLANNING when going into combat situations. Vehicals stuck in the mud, units changing plans without knowing whats going on with the other units, so much talk on radio/communication people couldnt hear each other, confusion in alot of cases, and what seemed to be organised disorganisation? if that makes sense?
lol

my brother, who usually votes republican but wont this election year, was even appauled at the lack of understanding of the battle field that the 'leaders' of the units had.

I dunno, God bless 'em for signing up to the armed forces,but, I tend to think our military lacks a certain... i dunno... intelligence?

Perhaps we should find ways to get people with higher education and people skills involved with the military. Tho most those people prolly oppose the war, so heck i dunno.

perhaps that show will come back on the Discovery Channel. I highly advise people watch it.. I knew our military had its problems, but I didnt know how bad it was until i watched it.
The discovery channel doesnt treat it as such, and tried to be positive and supportive, but the armed forces mistakes still shown thru.
