Well I am no expert but i think we have the most powerful armed forces in the world. What he has proposed is not cutting the military but cutting the people who profit from military spending. The US spent $687 billion in 2009 on the military. Or nearest competition China spent a paltry $114 billion. In fact you have to total the next 17 countries together to surpass our spending. Isn't it time we could discuss some cost saving measures before we go broke policing the world. Please don't forget that our military technology is far superior to those 17 other countries. I believe we have room to trim the fat and still be extremely effective.
