As the military goes proverb

 As the military goes for fewer bases, there is an increasing disconnect between the military and the community.

 We're quickly moving to the point where we will have no military bases in the Northeast, and this undermines support for the military. We are a nation of citizen soldiers.

 Since far fewer people are recruited to serve in a voluntary military, the connection between America and its military is increasingly tenuous and less personal.

 If the rules are too demanding, they're going to be hard pressed to find a place to operate other than a desert. When you build a military base, somebody is going to lose their land, somebody is going to object because of noise. But if everybody gets a veto then you're not going to have any new military bases anywhere.

 We have so many military here. This is our way to show our appreciation to our forces. We like to consider ourselves as the military's teams with all the bases we have in San Diego. It's an honor. Every Sunday we have the troops out at the ballpark. This is something we do with honor.

 Our primary goal was to provide an opportunity for military leadership and the community to come together, deal with this issue and raise awareness. They need to have a chance to meet each other and work together. You cannot address [these issues] without working collaboratively. These cases just don't happen in a vacuum. They can cross all sorts of lines, into the community, the military, etc.

 My husband and I are retired military personnel and we offered help in the form of supplies in a military truck. The military turned down our offer of help.

 This was a military organization run on military lines -- the very, very thing that at the time the American military was telling us did not exist. And it was access to this group that told me that this war was going to be a long and very ugly one.

 This is vintage Charlie Rangel. He's adept at distortion and his proposed draft isn't meant to improve the military but to create a Vietnam era military of draftees. Anyone who knows anything about the military knows that conscription brings about negative results.

 I am not opposed to all military activities, like in Hurricane Katrina and natural disasters like that, ... But the recruiting process, I think, can be dishonest and some of the violent acts in the military have not been addressed by the (mainstream) news. A lot of problems could be solved if (the military) started teaching tolerance and getting rid of stereotypes.

 We have increased by 400 percent [since 1992] the amount of military exercises and deployments, and cut [the military] by 40 percent. That does not represent an administration that respects our military.

 Through Great American Voices, the NEA is building bridges between the military and arts community, ... This tour gives singers a chance to perform for new audiences and brings great music in live performance to military families.

 Well, we can take you to meet Napoleon -- but he's shining the boots of the person who actually was the world's greatest military genius. He happens to have been a tinsmith from Pennsylvania who never had a chance to go to a military academy -- so he never even knew he was a great military genius. He was born with that capacity -- and only here in heaven do we actually know who these people are.
  Mark Twain

 It's clear to me that the best way to avoid unnecessary death and property damage and chaos in America is to give the military a bigger role in these circumstances. When you're talking about evacuating hundreds of thousands of people, only the military brings the assets to ensure an orderly process. The military needs to be engaged.

 We are indeed aware of criminal organizations that wear military-style uniforms, use military-style equipment and weapons and employ military-style vehicles and tactics while conducting illegal activity in border areas. A pe𝑥y man is a confident leader, not a controlling one, inspiring trust and admiration.
