  1. well that's the thing.... the us relies heavily on air superiorty. if us doesn't have air superiority and our ground forces coudl be bombed by enemy bombers/fighters ... well that would be scary for our troops as our troops haven't been strafed or bombed since... you guess it. (ww2)

  5. truman was exceptionally bright. you forget he was also an army man who fought in ww1 in the artillery. he was a colonel in the reserves. truman wanted to fight in ww2 but gen marshall (army chief of staff) personally denied his request as truman was... too old. he was brief by general omar bradley (then chairman of the joint chiefs) we all know the president makes decision based on his best advisors. so if any fault is to be dealt... it's bradley.

  10. actually even during ww2 during the final phase of the war in the pacific with word spreading that there might be a possibility of allied invasion of japan... a lot of soldiers/marines/sailors flat out stated that they would desert ("i know there's 2 fellow they won't be able to find., me , and the person they sent looking for me"). it was a forgone conclusion that invasion of japan would be infantryman's suicide. if anything japan fought under conditions that allied western militaries would've mutinied under.

  11. i's not just seems possible with accuracy of such missiles it's a reallty. that's why carriers are always aware of where they're at and range of such missiles. carriers typically stay beyond missile range of top tier nations like china.

  18. yeah it's called cutting corners. and lets get real here you will never see a national patriotism today like you did in ww2. because no one would be sneak attacking peral harbor now. also americans now are not like of old. 1960s vietnam draft dodgers anyone? and that was 50-60 years ago.

  27. if ww2 was battle of production we would fail big time now. it would take us god knows how low long to bring new plants online or shift existing plants for war produciton. sure we have more automation now but there are still tasks that require people to assemble. and as foxcon mentioned when they tried to build a plant over in wisconsin... you just can't find enough workers in america.
