Always wise to try and think like your enemy, we got Sun Tzu'd hard a few times in Vietnam. But in this instance I think a bunch of inexperienced soldiers on a UN deployment with a overly rigid command structure and poorly defined goals ended up between two gang armies who had zero GAF and the outcome was probably inevitable.
It's hard to be a ACLU hating, philosophically Libertarian, socially liberal, fiscally conservative, scientifically grounded, agnostic, porn admiring gun owner who believes in self determination.

Or to try to get us to rest on our laurels, and not advance our military allowing them to catch up. We took the Soviet capability claims at face value and built a military capable of beating what they claimed to have. When we realized that they had grossly overestimated their abilities, we already had a military force unmatched by the rest of the world. The Chinese have had about 2 decades to play catch up while we were playing whack a mole in Iraq/A-Stan, and more time tends to favor them if we don't reinvest in holding our superiority.

Not even close. On the plus side, the Ukraine War has finally forced people to realize what a major hole we've dug ourselves, and started the process to rectify the lack of production for at least some weapon types. Probably too little too late, and certainly not an easy fix, but hopefully a step in the right direction. If only we could revitalize industrial capacity across the board, and focus on our own raw material production.

Well, maybe Japan, but even with their help and even IF Boeing reopened Wichita and Renton AND converted the now-dead 747 line I don't see all of that on three-shifts-a-day managing to rebuild the backbone of Strategic Air Command. Not even getting into the need to rebuild a Pacific Fleet that's a shadow of its former self... Goddamn Kremlinhumpers with their "MUH PEEEZ DIBUHDEND!" bullshit.
