From A Low Point In The 1970S, The ArmyS War Fighting Capability Increased In The 1980S In The Face Of A Prospective War With The Soviet Union. This Capability Was Then Tested On Operations From Kuwait In 1991 Through To Afghanistan In 2001 And The 2003 Invasion Of Iraq.There Followed Two Decades Of Descent From This High Plateau Of Military Achievement. Mistakes Made In Iraq And Afghanistan Led To A Decline In Support For Military Deployments.
