I remember the 1990s from an Inside the Military perspective. The Clinton years were full of ridiculous ideas and preposterous claims. In fact, I do remember setting in a briefing on this very subject. I was in a auditorium full of fighter pilots, AWACS crews, and tactical air lifters. Many of these individuals had engineering and scientific degrees. As I recall, the briefing was interrupted by raucous laughter on more than one occasion. This is because there were so many fantastic claims coming out of the Clinton Administration. Not a one of them were ever backed up with substance. The Clintons were too busy squandering The Peace Dividend to fund any major weapons development. Well, that and I imaging the cigars took up a lot of their time.
