With the robotics in the works with the US military and this guys stuff looks Like Starship Troopers second best war book ever written may come true in my life time. Best war book ever written Rommel's Attacks.

Starship Troopers, being entirely fiction, ranks well behind Dmitriy Loza's Commanding the Red Army's Sherman Tanks, Peter Dickens' Night Action, John Masters' The Road Past Mandalay, or Otto Carius' Tigers in the Mud, and those are only the ones that sprang to mind before I finished reading your post. :)

I can see it now, swarms of illegals flying across the channel, AA and searchlight units stationed on the white cliffs of Dover!
Battle of Britain all over again! :)
