It's always former defence ministers, retired generals/admirals, etc that come out with these sort of statements. Stating that we need more/better equipment more funding, etc.
The ones currently in those positions seem to like to say everything is hunky dory even when it clearly is not.
Amazing, isn't it. Those fucking assholes, that could have done something about it
when they had the authority, did nothing, and now whine like andy that 'oh, I wish it
had been different'.
The only real man not to do this shit on either side of the Atlantic
is Gen. Sir Mike Jackson.
