No. It was not Ford at all. The 1975 budget for the US military was passed in 1974 and we completely pulled out of Saigon in May 1975. The 1976 military budget, passed in 1975, barely budged from it's former funding levels because Ford didn't want to appear weak on the military in an election year. Carter did a moderate scale-down, on the advice of his top-brass.No, that was Ford, with Carter batting clean-up, wasn't it? And there's no escaping the idea that Carter went too far in finishing the job.Well, I don't know about every year, but certainly in 1981, as we were saying goodbye to the disaster known as the Carter Presidency.Never seen that story before....LOL Like every year for the last 60 years No, there is no other nation even close to us militarily
Carter ramped down the military after VietNam ended.
What a travesty
