* Since World War II, the US Army has been the world's most technologically advanced and lavishly equipped army.*
It entered the 1960s honed to a sharp edge and fully prepared to defend the West against Soviet hordes storming into Central Europe.*
Perhaps more than any other army in the world, the US Army has reflected the society that created it.*
A decade of attrition warfare and political unwillingness to mobilize the reserves forced the Army to cannibalize units outside of Vietnam had ground down the Army and ruined it for a decade.* By the early 1970s, the US Army was a shattered, hollow shell of the fighting force that confidently entered Vietnam. And in the 1970s, the Army battled the same problems - racism, drug abuse, and apathy - that plagued American society as a whole. *The Arab oil embargo, a pacifistic and isolationist political leadership and general economic stagnation prevented the Army from upgrading its equipment to fight its renewed mission - the Soviet Threat. Fortunately, the Army still had a cadre of dedicated officers determined to rebuild the army and fight Soviet arrogance.*
