Are we really training seriously for the next conventional war? All the signs I see say no.

If you look at recent statements from the CSA, that is where we are returning. The Army is like a huge ship. It turns a few degrees at a time.

The Army has been back to decisive action CTC rotations since about 2012 or so.

The company I'm in has changed to training METL tasks that are almost all oriented towards conventional war.

Some people say that climate change is the biggest threat to our future but yes we have sequestration. We have little or no spare parts we don't have much money for training and we can't even pay the reserve component for those who travel far because they're out of money before the end of the fiscal year. Yet we have money for planes that can't fly but we don't have spare parts for the planes that do fly. So if we have a next War half the plans will be grounded and the planes that could fly will be too dangerous to fly.

Yes we are.

We need to go back to fighting MIBNs. My Fort Knox CCC was one of the last classes in 2004 to be taught with Warsaw Pact Soviet tactics defense.
