I'm afraid I didn't take any of his remarks to Andrew Marr seriously. I have never heard such an Army centric view of the world considering the recent end of a relatively successful Libyan campaign. Great as CGS but in his current role, it was pitiful. The Navy and the RAF finally got a mention after most of the interview had finished and he'd defended axing a further few of the remaining 6 Brigades (85k by 2018 IIRC). As for the thought of a further campaign with the current Army force structure............. well.

Standing by.
