Oh, man, this is going to get confusing; now there's Kitty_Kat and me.

I seriously doubt that the draft will be mobilized within the next 50 years. Wars are becoming so much more technology-based that the kind of Army that one saw in Vietnam is becoming superfluous. It's all about the air raids and the special ops now.

Boy, I'm not getting into that kind of war (the last two posts). I've been close to Kat fights before:

I agree. That's pretty much what I've said earlier -- but, in the end, it still takes ground troops to take and occupy territory. Airplanes and missles and ships can't do that.

But I don't see huge "set piece" battles like the World Wars or even Desert Storm was supposed to turn into. At least I hope not.
