So I am not a fan of the armed forces in any way shape or form, but I do admire those who put their well being on the line for others and sympathise with servicemen and servicewomen (are these one word titles?) who are now facing cuts and job losses.
Regardless of my views, I think it is disgusting how members of the armed forces have to deal with limited funding for good equipment and conditions already, and now the current spate of cuts and job losses strikes me as very unfair.
AIBU to think this or ill informed on the issue?
According to an article I read today in The Sun (which I do not buy but happened to read in the doctors waiting room today), the armed forces is at serious risk of not being able to perform their duties by 2015 and will be stretched even further than it currently is.
I am really looking for more info on this from those better informed, and other people's views on what is going on. I know there are a lot of MN's who have friends and loved one's in the Armed forces so thought I would ask.
