        Depending on how far back you want to go, you could make the argument for your army’s first enemy being…

        • Basic training

        • Recruitment

        • Their mothers’ birth canals

        • The dating scene in their home villages

      Nope, logistics is the first enemy. You can have the men and high tech weapons you want. But if you can’t get them to where those things are needed in the quantity they are needed-- You lose.

      The US military is still the best in the world at moving men and material in the least amount of time than anyone else. And as much as fuckcars hates the over grown US highway system, it would be a tremendous advantage to be used against any would be invader.
