RE: Seeing the ‘Light’

“Why can’t we get some light shed on who is standing in the way of changing this system?” — Oldguy

Personally, I’d really like to see the results of the ‘wargames’ the Puzzle Palace plays. [Note: Heck. While attending IOAC, I was selected, along with several other classmates, to step out of the training program and develop a scenario to test a hypothetical weapons system. It was a wonderful experience, as I'm an avid 'wargamer' with an emphasis on tactical and operational level actions.]

However, to disclose them in public IS, in my professional opinion, a breach of national security. After all, it would be showing our potential enemies what we’re thinking and planning for several years down the proverbial ‘road’.

As for the idea of “who is standing the the way of changing the system”, all you have to do is pay attention.

Then again, you need to be able to discern whether the ‘change’ should occur or should not.

During the Bush II administration, the Defense Department canceled the ‘Paladin’ artillery system. I thought that a good move. It looked to me to be a logistical nightmare.

However, as I’ve stated earlier in this thread, canceling the Raptor doesn’t look that good to me.

Who is ‘standing the way’? Of progress? Three guesses….first two don’t count…..

P.S. I ‘hope’ everyone is enjoying the ‘change’……
