So we are preparing for war with China. We are already at war with Russia. Just a matter of when.

To Prepare for a Pacific Island Fight, Marines Hide and Attack in California

With America’s relations with China deteriorating over Beijing’s actions — most recently due to its aggressive moves on Taiwan, its attempts to intimidate Japan, its violation of U.S. airspace with a spy balloon and its support for Russia’s invasion of Ukraine — the mission of preparing for a potential future conflict in Pacific island chains was important enough that about a half-dozen generals, including the Marine commandant, came to see the results of the exercise for themselves.

“Each year they are expanding their deployments,” General Berger said of the Chinese naval forces in an interview. “Not only in terms of the complexity of them but also the distances they cover.”

China’s navy, General Berger said, was now taking a page from the U.S. Navy, operating in strike groups, with destroyers and other warships escorting an aircraft carrier.

Why would we get into a war with a country that depends so much on our economy (to buy things) & one that owns so much bonds in USA (over 1 trillion).

So, they unlearned everything they learned fighting the Japanese in World War Two? Sure...

I'm glad my dad's not alive to hear that if it's true. If he knew they forgot everything leading up to his time at Iwo Jima his head would explode.

As far as "bouncing signals off layers of the atmosphere," this is nothing new. That's like the first days of radio stuff.
