The Current Environment

“[Severe new budget cuts] very simply, would result in hollowing out the force. It would terribly weaken our ability to respond to the threats in the world. But, more importantly, it would break faith with the troops and with their families. And a volunteer army is absolutely essential to our national defense.“

Secretary of Defense Leon E. Panetta August 17, 2011
