Of course there is a strategy MGD - how else do you think things in the forces got this bad? We couldnt have screwed up this badly without a strategy!
Be careful mind, now you've started talking about strategy, you'll be getting ideas above your station and expecting to see a plan. My ROE allow for the use of deadly force in that eventuality (or rather, following MOD cutbacks, allow me to point a pistol at you, pull the trigger and watch as a big 'BANG' flag unfurls in your direction...)
