GM ~~ totally agree!
MsEZ and I talk about this stuff often ie. what we have NOW vs. what we read about in COMIC BOOKS in our youth.
Much of the FLASH GORDON, SyFy stuff has now become reality.....
hoverboards, cell phones, RAY-guns, stealth bombers, communicating w/ one another through AIR WAVES (WiFi), driverless autos, etc.
I can't imagine what the next few decades bring ---- appears conventional warfare, as we remember it, only for the history books.
I think we can all agree though --- let's PRAY that we NEVER
are forced to use any of it ---- except for practice and readiness!
