US Army proposed cuts Yes, law enforcement pretty much are guaranteed their pensions unless they do something stupid and get fired (e.g do drugs, shoot someone bad shooting, etc.) Line in the Sand-I have a friend who had a daughter as a Lt in the Coast Guard that was let go after just a few...

US Army proposed cuts Thanks Billy, I was in law enforcement and we could not get rid of the dead wood. I trust your opinion.

US Army proposed cuts I agree with you Line in the Sand that we need a new war to justify the numbers although war is the last thing we really need. It could be argued that there are threats to justify not downsizing (Russia, China, Korea, Syria, etc) but there is the tech component drones and...

Thanks Jason. Good luck to you.

Jason, my DS has not heard anything yet about STEM. Hopefully he will be in your USNA class of 2020.
