Before "you know who" shows up to say "FD has been approved by multiple administrations / several Congress's" and the conversation becomes a rehash of whether that equates to validation or not, I propose changing it up to keep it interesting. Grable et al, how about you address the 5 questions in terms of practical and available capability today. Give a few details. Feel free to explain how EABO as proposed under FD, supports the answers. How do you think the FD better prepared the USMC to support an ally in meeting engagements / global crisis response?
Marines are usually somewhat resistant to change and most of the time, for good reason. The MARINE CORPS of today I do not reconize, yes they wear the green and The Eagle Globe and Anchor...that's about it. I see a politically correct MC and that makes me sad.

I will second SW's reply. ABSOLUTELY! Just because Congress throws money at an issue does not mean it is a good idea.
Absolutely!!!!
