People that are looking to sign up to go get shot at are pretty scarce (which is one of the reasons we have so few special forces, and why the Marines are a small service branch)

well most of that post was your predictions,thoughts and some things that are just not true. The above statement is nothing be BS. for example, marines are not SMALL because of any shortages that's just plain nuts, please dont post things as facts just becasue you think or want them to be.

Dan,
Maybe it is the cold medicine and I am not making myself clear.
I do not thinkl the Marines have any shortages - They are small with good reason, there are simply not that many that can cut it as a Marine
I have HUGE, DEEP, repect for anyone willing to put themselves in harms way.
I simply believe that you are not going to continue to find that many people looking to volunteer to go get shot at, especially when the war we are fighting is not against the people who attacked us.
Peaches - I think you are overestimating the number. (one of us is probably mistaken, I honestly hope things don't get so bad we need to find out)
