Midrats Sunday 5pm Easter: Episode 111 Returning to a Constitutional Military

Episode 111 Returning to a Constitutional Military 02/19 by Midrats | Blog Talk Radio 5pm:
The large standing Army and active duty military we have known in our lifetime may seem the norm - but it isn't. Is there a way to maintain a strong military capability - available and scaleable if needed - without the structure we have become accustomed to? Is there a better way to balance our Reserve and National Guard forces that is better in line with our economic, national security, and yes - Constitutional requirements? This Sunday, 19 FEB from 5-6pm EST, join us with our guest, General Ron Fogleman, USAF (Ret) for the full hour. Using his recent article in Defense News, Going Back to the Future: Militia Model Could Cut U.S. Expenditures as a starting point, we will discuss these ideas and more as we look for a way to maintain strength and options as the budget crunch starts.

  1. he's halfway there. the constitutional militia model was a small standing army, state guards, and individual local militias. it sounds like he stops at the state guard level.
