Looking over the casualty reports from the recent raids and I’m at a loss for words. How is it that our men fall in such numbers while the enemy barely breaks a sweat? My strategists are suggesting a reinforced perimeter to protect the front lines, but the cost in labor and resources is staggering. I hate seeing our soldiers treated like mere tools to be spent, but I fear if we don't find a way to stabilize our defense, the morale of the entire army will shatter.
