I can agree with the cutting back.

With all the smart weapons and computer controlled components, you do not necessarily need all the personnel say you did 15-20 years ago to operate.

Does not mean that our Military is any less capable..... Just Sayin.

The cutting back on re-up opportunities being reduced was going on when I got out of the Corps in 93. Was getting real strict then. I had to get out due to lack of promotion openings in my field, not really by choice. But was glad to get back to a normal life.
