He will expand our ground forces, develop new capabilities, and restore the trust between the commander in chief and those who serve.<BR/><BR/>To make diplomacy a priority, Obama will stop shuttering consulates and start opening them in the tough and hopeless corners of the world – particularly in Africa. He will expand our foreign service, and develop the capacity of our civilian aid workers to work alongside the military.<BR/><BR/>We have learned from Iraq that our military needs more men and women in uniform to reduce the strain<BR/>on our active force. Obama will increase the size of ground forces, adding 65,000 soldiers to the Army and<BR/>27,000 Marines.<BR/><BR/>Obama will give our troops new equipment, armor, training, and skills like language training. He will also strengthen our civilian capacity, so that our civilian agencies have the critical skills and equipment they need to integrate their efforts with our military.<BR/><BR/>- Blueprint for ChangeAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
