[Daily Mail, where America gets its news]
  • Navy Adm. Charles A. Richard, commander of Stratcom, addressed a gathering of top military officials in Arlington, Va., on Wednesday

  • Richard warned that further investment in the US military was needed, in the face of rising threats

  • 'This Ukraine crisis that we're in right now, this is just the warmup,' he said. 'The big one is coming'

  • Richard added: 'It isn't going to be very long before we're going to get tested in ways that we haven't been tested a long time'

  • He said not enough was being done to counter Chinese aggression, saying: 'As I assess our level of deterrence against China, the ship is slowly sinking'

  • Richard called on Pentagon chiefs and policy makers to return to the dynamism of the 1950s and 60s, and a phase which saw the U.S. put man on the moon
