主题：【原创】美国普通军人要是就这么看待中国的话 -- 晨枫

The growing threat posed by China, not to mention political woes, has shaken up the US Navy.

Navy aviators have begun a quiet but earnest threat reappraisal. “You will face an adversary who believes he can beat you, your airplane, your tactics, and your sensors,” four-star Adm. Patrick M. Walsh warned carrier pilots in late 2009.

The Navy is taking emerging threats in the Pacific seriously, and China looms large in this regard. Walsh, in fact, was intentionally repeating an identical remark voiced in 2008 by Adm. Robert F. Willard, who in October took over command of US Pacific Command.

Official statements from the Navy have begun cautiously to acknowledge a growing threat. Adm. Timothy J. Keating observed the Pacific near-peer for two years while commanding PACOM.
