Partisanship Stops At 30,000 Feet

OJ notes that Canada is buying military transports from Boeing. This brings to mind the old saw that amateurs think strategy while Generals think logistics. The US monopoly on heavy transport has been one of our most successful strategies since World War II, and yet it goes completely unheralded. We can get our troops anywhere in the world quickly. No one else can, unless they have our permission and our aid.
