[QUOTE="WTJ, post: 2000689, member: 6661"] Yeah, I'd rather have a bunch of the current spawn hanging out with "field pieces" with ZERO training. Good call. Part of the language was to avoid a standing military, and rely on Citizen Soldiers. In order to do that, a small core of full time, or 'professional' practitioners of the martial arts was needed. This was done through WW II. The US Army was ranked 17th in size/capability in 1939 with 190,000 soldiers and 14,000 professional officers. Hence the need for a militia. By 1945, the US Army had 8,300,000 personnel. The PermaWar state the citizens have been conditioned to accept is where this 'militia' issue started off the rails. More Newspeak from the Libs changed the meaning (surprise) of the word. [/QUOTE]
