1. LOL
Reagan did a revitalization and huge increase in Military, that was one of his big programs, rebuilt and unmothballed Carriers and Battleships, and increased military spending.

That is simply wrong.

Reagan increased spending in all sectors in first term, and may have cut a little later, but hugely increased military spending.

That is simply not true. Or all news at that time was backwards.

Increase in new balistic missles
wanted Increase in Star Wars defense
B1 bombers
Put battleships back in service
And increased navy, and recruiting.
