"we have fewer warships than then. Fewer horses and fewer carts. "
Fewer veterinarians and farriers, too. Also, fewer dirigibles. We have more drones, tho. One drone pilot at home replaces a 10-man B-17 crew, along with its escort of fighters..

At least you haven't disagreed with the fact we have the smallest military since 1940.

And since today's failed national education system doesn't teach history, the last two generations have no idea what in the hell was going on in 1940.
