When you are too quick to label someone, you miss the fine points. Did you ever ask me what I thought? But let me give you a clue...I am not in lock-step with any political party. Like yourself Mark, I was raised by two straight thicket Democrats, I never understood why they never give any thought to the alternate candidate even if he/she promoted their agenda.

We were discussing "top secret" clearances a while back. Did everyone catch what the Moron in Chief did?
US scrambles to increase weapons production after Biden let military info slip on TV. President Biden said last week on TV that 'we’re low on' 155 mm artillery rounds.
Let's hope that his stupidity doesn’t cost America lives.

I would not believe that the production of the 155 round is classified. If anyone started talking about "War Reserve" supplies then that is a whole different circus. Example, war planners have already estimated the number of rounds to fight in a specific theater. That would be marked at least "confidential" or "limited official use". The 155 round is NATO standard munition, a dozen countries can supply these projectiles. Therefore, transfers to Ukraine are unlikely to be constrained when the global market is considered.

I've been around plenty of 105s and 155s. The 155s "bring smoke". Put yourself In a different time and place and the President notified the whole world, Enemies included. That we are short on 155s or any weapon of war. He is a stupid SOB. He and Hanoi Jane belong in the same gallows. My late mother died from complications of alhzhiemers. She had more sense on her last days that this complete idiot... the President of the United States of America...passing out critical information for war. Should draft every SOB that voted for him....see how they like him, and his dope head.

I too have been around artillery, the 8” and 155 were platforms for delivering my weapon system. In further research, found the the reason for shortage is the conventional artillery are being replaced by the HIMARS, with a range of 45 miles which is twice the distance of a 155 round at 14.5. The furthest I have ever fired a round is with a rocket assist 8” round with a number 9 super charge…19.5 miles and was during the testing phase of the XM754 that lead to the develop of the W79.

54 on the 1970 lottery, unlike Trump, when called I went.
