have achieved the same objective standards with a fraction of the
force available with far fewer casualties. Force multiplier
effect is really strong.The_Chieftain: Not a chance. The US military did not need force
multipliers. It already was winning pretty much every military
engagement it was involved in. What technology cannot do is build
relationships and trust with people, and in Vietnam, Iraq, etc, the
people were the center of gravity to fight over, not the hardware
or military manpower. You need to have enough troops on the ground
to be able to do that, and they have to be well trained enough to
hold their own. speaking of, watched Jadotville last night.
Not bad. Some good laughs that probably only Irishmen would get,
