No Army In Louisiana

To those wondering why it isn’t a good idea to deploy infantry soldiers to assist in natural disasters in the continental United States, listen closely: infantry soldiers train to kill people. One of the reasons Iraq has been so difficult for us is that we can’t just kill people there. So deploying soldiers not trained for disaster relief or police work would be unfair and lead to another embarrassment for the Army. So until they tell us in advance to train soldiers and develop regular Army units for disaster relief don’t ask. We have our hands full with Iraq already. We already have units trained for the task in the National Guard. Deploy them there.
