Hard to tell but I think it is being destroyed because it is difficult to count and easier to buy new.

Re: Pentagon to distroy 1.2 billion in ammunition
Perhaps we should lower the military budget by exactly that amount, since they apparently don't need that ammunition for anything.

What I want to say can't even be expressed on this forum. To say this is ridiculous might be the understatement of the year.

I was thinking I could bid on the contract to destroy the ammunition.
Re: Pentagon to distroy 1.2 billion in ammunition
There is some good news here. As inefficient as our government is I bet the rest of the world's governments are even worse. Anyone who has ever served ( 8 years active myself) knows that the military is a bloated mess. But I don't think the Russians or Chinese are better. What's really bad is the VA. Obamacare is nothing more than the VA and we all are stuck with it- for now.

I could use a job. You going to have openings? If so, I'll share with you the details of my plan to destroy it....one round at a time.....philip964 wrote:I was thinking I could bid on the contract to destroy the ammunition.

Your hired! I like your plan. Maybe they would have 50 cal. And we would have to buy destruction equipment.The Annoyed Man wrote:I could use a job. You going to have openings?

Now where to find the bidding documents to submit the low bid.
Dang they probably don't want a low bid, they want the lowest qualified bid.
We will have to buy a company with Obama ties that's good at destroying things. I know we buy the assets of Cylindra. They were good at destroying money.

Re: Pentagon to distroy 1.2 billion in ammunition
I'm .000042% "other than white" so if you'll merge with me we could be a minority owned business! The one round at a time seems to be the safest destruction method to me!philip964 wrote:Your hired!

Re: Pentagon to distroy 1.2 billion in ammunition
Me too - could we get one of the female members of the forum to start a "woman owned business" and bid on the contract to do the destruction, one round at a time, and put some of us out of work old timers with bad hearing to work?The Annoyed Man wrote:I could use a job.
