The tank on water skis . . .



Item: Marine landing craft likely to be axed.

The problem isn't the Marines, or even the idea of the new landing craft - it's the fact that it took over twenty years to develop and still wasn't a reality.

Developing landing craft in WWII didn't take 20 months. I'm not saying weapons should be rushed into existence, but for crapsake . . . what do you have around the house that was made 20 years ago?

The best Marine weapon remains a Marine.
