WNU Editor: I expected a better ad.

I liked it.
Historically the US military has been very, very good at destroying things which frankly is what a military is supposed to do. Based upon the prior track record I would expect Space Force to become very, very good at destroying things if they are not already even though we are having to play catch to the major powers who have a head start on us. Historically the US military has not been good at marketing. The ad is better than I expected. I suspect they are going to have get much better at marketing in the coming months and years if they are going to recruit and maintain capable personnel. Of course good marketing without major changes in approach by the leadership class won't help us much. Improving the marketing is a step in the right direction though.
