I left off with my last article on Meat pontificating on the politics of Meat, but I wasn’t done on the topic yet, there was still too much left to discuss.
Brother I love the way you put the need for quality infantry. I’ve been trying to tell people that even if the job of an infantryman is hazardous and miserable that just emphasizes the need to have quality people who are smart, well-trained, and well-equipped. Especially when the cost of giving an infantryman all the stuff he needs is minuscule compared to some of the stuff nations procure for defense.
Infantryman should never intentionally be made disposable. It’s the mark of national desperation, and those who do it only have their options and overall capabilities constrained because of it.

I was actually thinking of your last comment when I wrote that section about how the infantry shouldn't skimp on quality.
Very good post
