You are twisting as usual. You have no defense so you say, Bush 41 did it. A certain amount of decommisioning and revamping ALWAYS goes on....NEVER to the extent that Clinton did it, and the reasons were different WHY Clinton was doing it. Key words there.. ACTIVE service people, BATTLESHIPS, 10 Divisions. We have MANY reserves that in in Iraq today because of the downsizing of active troops and the number of seasoned vets that could not stand Clinton. Battleships...decommisioning ALL of them was foolish. They were not only symbols for America, but could put a lot of firepower on any Marine landing operation, and/or stand off the coast of anywhere as a guard. Yes, of course they handled Iraq, as well as Afghanistan...what if Korea had flared at this time, you would see a different story.
