Naw, just pokin' fun. We're currently paying for Army transformation by cutting USAF/USN personnel - no sh*t. Big numbers too. Army is in flux - many ideas of end state - we'll see when we get there what it actually is. Expect combat trades to remain steady, but support trades to draw down slightly - overall Army numbers won't change as dramatically as USAF/USN.
Within USAF, only AFSOC is a growth organization - new planes, new squadrons, new toys, more people.
Personally, I think we're expanding too quickly - going against our "SOF Truths" - many changes on the horizon for AFSOC...
Talk about thread creep...
