As a retired Marine who went on active duty in 1979, I can say with certainty that the Democrats and RINO like McCain have consistently screwed over the US Military for a very long time.

What HAVE the Democrats/Uniparty done to the US Military?

THINK:

Improper equipment for WW1, WW2, Korea, Vietnam (crappy M-16s), etc.

Bonus March and the lies that were told to them before and after WW1.

Pearl Harbor (FDR knew about it).

Bataan Death March because FDR wanted to help commie Stalin, his "Uncle Joe" before the Pacific.

Corregidor.

Wake Island

Korea 1950 (Started thanks to Truman's idiot Dean Acheson)

Bay of Pigs

Vietnam and 58+K Americans dead.

THIS is just off of the top of my head, the list is very long.

My first experience with them came when that imbecilic peanut farmer REFUSED to sign the budget for FY 81 (1 Oct 80) and NO ONE got paid, with the exception of fifty USD amonth for "sanitary purposes," like haircuts and uniform maintenance. As the holiday season rolled around, we were told to "use our savings" for Thanksgiving and Christmas. Imagine this, you are stationed OCONUS and would like to go home for Christmas leave only you DO NOT have a paycheck to save for this from 1 Oct 80 to 16 Jan 81, when Ronaldus Magnus signed the "quad" and we got paid.

Many other incidents happened over the years, mainly with Democrat, but some RINOs like McCain but another excellent example is the Democrat Congcritter who came to Okinawa (name withheld because the varmint is still alive, more's the pity) for a fact-finding mission, from 1000 to 1400, and ate HIS lunch right in front of 50+ Marines, whose growling stomachs could likely be heard out on the grinder.

Perhaps the best one is when BJ Bubba Clinton and The Hildabeast came to Okinawa in 1999 and locked down the entire island! Active duty were told to wear their uniforms, no civvies allowed, NO ONE could leave their post, which sucked for the people living aboard Camp Courtney/Camp McTureous Towers as the PX/Commissary were located ON ANOTHER sub-camp!

The US Gruberment cares about three things only.

1. Control.

2. Power

3. Getting richer via the MIC.

Spot on! Had we not surrendered our AB in Bagram we would of had a secure place to get our folks out. Milley owns that.
