Although the United States was reducing its 2.2 million active-duty force to about 1.4 million and a yearly defence budget of $300 billion to about $250 billion, the Clinton administration pledged that this force would remain \"the best-equiped, trained, and prepared in the world\". The author warned that, unless the US took powerful remedial action, this pledge would not be met. The events of 9\/11\/2001 and the second Gulf War, put his views, written in 1995, into stark relief\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Military History Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67668886192427,"sku":"14251","price":7.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1022\/1289\/5019\/files\/in-irons-u-s-military-might-in-the-new-century-by-harlan-ullman-new-1995-first-ed-hb_14251_main_original.jpg?v=1791235378","url":"https:\/\/militaryhistorybooks.com\/products\/in-irons-u-s-military-might-in-the-new-century-by-harlan-ullman-new-1995-first-ed-hb","provider":"Military History Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
