by david Tuesday, Jul. 20, 2004 at 8:50 AM

In a speech in Independence, Missouri, John Kerry announced his plan "to transform the world's most powerful military to better address the modern threats of terrorism and proliferation, while ensuring that we have enough properly trained and equipped troops to meet our enduring strategic and regional missions." To accomplish this, he will: (1) expand our active duty forces, (2) double America 's Special Forces capability and increase other specialized personnel, (3) complete the process of technological transformation, and (4) redirect the National Guard for homeland security. The following is a fact sheet downloaded from JohnKerry.com.
