We were unaware and unprepared. We had some of the best equipment in the world (B-17 Liberator) and no idea of how to succesfully employ it in wartime(witness our failure in daylight precision bombing in Europe). We drew down our forces and refused to see the writing on the wall, all we wanted was peace, we felt that freedom and liberty of others wasn't worth fighting for. Look what we did to leaders like General Billy Mitchell who tried to bring our forces into the 20th century and paid for it with his career. And did we learn? Were we prepared for Korea? How well were are forces trained to fight a conventional war in Viet Nam? (after we bought our hard iron bombs back from the Germans) Heck we even started to drawn down our forces well we were still fighting the 1st Gulf war, they eliminated my position while I was in Saudi Arabia during Dessert Sheild (won't need EOD troops to deal with IEDs 'cause Russia folded) , yes I was part of Teddy Kennedey's "peace dividend" If we had the resolve to deal with Saddamm Hussien in '90& '91 maybe the sons and daughters of they guys that were there in 90 & 91 wouldn't be there today. And look who our enemey was in Japan, a fantical people lead by leaders that had them convinced that they COULD NOT LOOSE BECAUSE GOD WAS WITH THEM, and our indication is they would fight down to the last women or child to die for their God, sorry I mean Emperor (posted by a USAF Veteran 1985-91)
