    The US military doesn’t need a fucking pier.

    Pull up a LHD and you could be driving them straight on the beach with the hover craft or setting them gently on the ground with helicopters.

    We do this shit all the time.

    Zero reason to be dropping from cargo planes or building a pier that’s only going to be able to handle small boats anyways

      I don’t understand this at all. Why are they building a pier instead of dropping off by boat?

      What is the shitty excuse for taking two extra months?
