I was reading about this earlier, and it seems that the dirty little secret of the military is our biggest expense is... Personal, housing, and (gasp!) healthcare. I can only imagine how staggering these expenses must be.

While I have concerns about making the Army any smaller, I question the wisdom behind what we currently have in place - Do we really need large conventional forces in Europe and South Korea? Do we really need so many Army troops to protect the United States mainland, which hasn't been invaded or attacked in how long?
