166. That's about what I expected
Although the excerpts are very succinct.

*sigh* sometimes I wonder if we should have a draft. Two years of service out of high school in either the military or something non-violent, like the Peace Corps or whatever.

I mean, the way I want things to look is to have a more powerful Navy and Marine Corps to project power without needing so much in the way of overseas bases, a reduced Army and Air Force, an expanded National Guard, and far fewer bases overseas.

So our professional military isn't so busy getting combat experience, yanno?
