I still think a lot about that ww2 battle you mentioned where a handful of American vessels that were the naval equivalent of go-karts succesfully bluffed a Jap mega-fleet with the biggest warships in the world. There's no grit like that today, partially because America doesn't deserve it any more. When both conservatives and liberals spent decades pushing soul-castrated "servant leadership" on men then there's a lot of incentive for independent minded men to just shrug their shoulders and do their own thing. Men take risks for communities and institutions that are worth it.
