The U.S. Constitution is clear that we should have a strong, national defense.  Our men and women in the military protect us and our freedoms, allowing America to remain a leader of the free world and a beacon of hope.  In order to keep us from falling behind other world powers, and to be prepared for emerging threats, we must continue to make investments in not only the most advanced equipment and technology, but also in the very people that choose to put on the uniform every day.
