Did you know there is a nationwide rampage going on where crazed fanatics with concealed carry permits are slaughtering innocent citizens? Neither did I, but thankfully the NY Times is on the story. With their usual, thoroughly accurate, fact-checked, journalistic professionalism propaganda, they have concocted a faux outrage that simply doesn't add up. National Review Online points out the fallacy.The only thing I can add to Jimbo's wonderful analysis is this. A couple of days ago a young man was chased down by a gang of animals (the two legged kind) and stabbed to death in a British mall on 'boxer day'...The UK has some of the most restrictive gun laws on the planet yet murders continue to happen everyday. Restrictive gun laws placed on law abiding citizens only makes those very same citizens potential victims.
Lieutenant General Morrison said, "the Army's Deployable Joint Force Headquarters will foster and develop an amphibious culture across Army, but it will take some time to master. The important point is that the Army is committed to developing this aspect of its operations."Wow.
To reinforce Army's commitment, the Chief of Army has designated the 2nd Battalion, Royal Australian Regiment (2RAR) to form the core of Army's contribution to a future amphibious force as this developmental work is done.
"2RAR will work on a day to day basis with Navy and Air Force on the LHDs and other amphibious platforms to further develop this joint capability."
In his inaugural year as Chief of Army, Lieutenant General Morrison expressed his confidence in Plan BEERSHEBA to deliver an Army that is robust, relevant and capable for the tasks directed by Government.
"Our modern Army is moving into the future with a new perspective and a smarter way of doing business and delivering capability within the resources we have," Lieutenant General Morrison said.
"Plan BEERSHEBA will ensure that Army can continue to contribute forces to operations including Afghanistan, until the mission is complete, and will successfully transition to a force that maintains high levels of readiness to react to the range of Australia's Defence needs as they arise.
"On operations and at home, it means we will derive the full value from our Army."
