Although the arguements will continue and I no doubt am going to open up a whole can of worms with this one I have to state it anyway.
With so many threads being debated I have to ask the question(s).
-What has happened to field training exercises, ammo and schools?
-Could not a lot of the questions that are being raised not be resolved through training rather than the establishment of a new unit?
-Without doctrine what are you really capable of anyway?
* This is the reality that I train in everyday, the young armchair generals that have it all figured out and how to fix it. I'd argue that the system works, people just have to be willing to accept that they may not be the solution. Give the soldiers more opertunity to train and it'll show you who belongs. Everything starts with field training, without it skills can't be passed along, a leaders intent can never be understood and we stand more and more behind the 8 ball durring post deployment workup - which would be greatly un-necessary if field training existed in the first place. *
