[QUOTE="snoopdog, post: 1491809, member: 27645"] A little farfetched, maybe , I have considered the subject over the years . What some don't understand is it would take civilian support to carry out the military mission , the military doesn't have refineries, etc on and on. Actual combat troops make up a very small percentage , the rest are support , who only fire a rifle once a year, not much help there . And , no an rpg can't destroy a tank, but it can blow the track off, rendering it immobile. An A-10 can't fly without spare parts or fuel. I wouldn't count on a reliable logistics chain. This is interesting to me, because I was actually proposed this question when I was in, by a 1st lt. "What would I do if I was ordered to participate in a confiscation "? My response "that would be an unlawful order and I would have to shoot you sir" [/QUOTE]
