It looks as if Rumsfeld's next target is the navy. After gutting the Army and Marines, refusing to enlarge their active duty numbers. It looks as if the navy is also going to get some major cuts. This article from SFTT.org in titled The Incredible Shrinking U.S. Navy, points out that are navy is now less then 300 ships and falling. Down from over 500 in 1991 with reductions in all classes of ships, of most importance the reduction of Submarines and aircraft carriers. It appears in this more dangerous world Rummy does not feel to concerned with recent actions of china and/or North Korea. With most of are ground forces tried up in Southwest Asia who else other than the navy is their to deal with other hot spots from Latin America to East Asia? Rumsfeld should of been gone long ago, at this point I don't feel that he or George W. Bush are holding up their sacred duty in the constitution to provide for the national defense.
