another reason the army is WEAK

Had to view the f'n commercial.

One Fuggly TI, man or woman. YUCK !

I hear they actually run in RUNNING SHOES rather than combat boots. Great if you have to run down Broadway in NYC, but what about the mountains of Afganistan or dessert of Iraq. Don't care what they do, basic job of the Army is the foot soldier and rifleman. If we don't have them, we don't win a ground war or any war for that matter.

WHAT YOU SAY? I CAN'T HEAR YOU !

I'm well aware of that, which is why I brought it up. The USMC detachment is on Army real estate. You trained on Army ranges and your USMC instructors were using classrooms at the Army's FA school. When I attended ARMY officer basic and advanced training at Fort Sill, there were several USMC Officers in my classes. Some of them stayed at Sill to become instructors after being trained by Army Officers.

I've seen similar sitiuations at the Air Defense, Signal, Quartermaster and Engineer schools. The USMC can't afford all of the infrastructure for that kind of training so Dept of Defense wisely has them use the facilities of the world's greatest Land Component Military: The United States Army.

So you see, if you want to criticize the Army and its standards, you are also criticizing the USMC.


"All Marine Field Artillerymen - both officer and enlisted - are trained at the United States Army Field Artillery Training Center.

Goals

To prepare soldiers and Marines for war and operations other than war.

Training command accomplishes this goal through instruction for soldiers and marines from initial entry level through battalion, division artillery and field artillery brigade pre-command courses"

ok thats kind of twisting things...we use all other service bases and facilities because we have NO budget....we get left overs from the navy as im sure u know. In SOME instances we do use other instructors...purely for the fact we dont have the man power...not beacuse of any better training/instructors. i know alot of this is ego, buts its also tru
