It genuinely never occurs to him that the vast majority of soldiers only need to be able to shoot good enough to keep the crew served weapons from getting flanked and perticipate in a final assault - so that's what the training is built around.

You mean the vast majority of those at the tip of the spear and or those who make up the logistical shaft of the spear?

They are both wrong, troops and armor only exist to keep enemy forces in a place long enough for artillery to eradicate everything.

Wrong again, artillery only exists to fix the enemy so AirPower can obliterate it.

Planes are just reusable cluster shells

low IQ guys like Trench just uncritically buy into all the "as a US solider you are the best of the best at EVERYTHING" training stuff they tell guys to build confidence and morale as total fact. It genuinely never occurs to him that the vast majority of soldiers only need to be able to shoot good enough to keep the crew served weapons from getting flanked and perticipate in a final assault - so that's what the training is built around.

I give the Army a lot of shit, but I don't think it's fair to blame them for Trench. His obsession about the greatness of Army training is due to it being his only accomplishments. His only backing for calling himself an expert and his online persona is that training. Between his own training video, his USPSA stolen valor, and ducking @SinistralRifleman 's challenge it's clear he can't back up anything he says.
