1. To keep guns (cannons) on jets, no matter how modern they become. Prior to the Viet War missiles were replacing guns, like todays computers have replaced typewriters.
2. Don't use tanks, helicopters, and jets to kill one enemy sniper. Use another sharpshooter (fight fire with fire).
3. Don't fight guerrillas with conventional troops. Use guerrillas (SF & SEAL teams)...fight fire with fire.
4. Utilize more UAVs. The Viet War pioneered the use of over 5,000 combat missions by unmanned jets (Ryan Firebees). But still lost over 2,000 jets and that many airmen. UAVs eliminate the human sacrifice (NO MORE POWs! (No more prisoners of war).
5. In small arms (for small arms) "spray and pray" isn't all what its cracked up to be. With fully automatic rlfes firing on "rock 'n roll" (M16s in this case) over 3,000 to 20,000 bullets (rounds... and the amount of ammo expended depends upon whose telling the story) per enemy casualty (read 20,000 bullets to kill one man) is a definite waste of taxpayers money, raw material (copper, brass, and lead), energy, time, and hard on the ears. Selective discriminating accurate fire (accurate bullets) is the way to go.
