The Defense Technical Information Center (DTIC) of the U.S. Department of Defense, is a repository for military engineering and research information. In 1998, the DTIC published a report titled “China’s Military Potential.” In the data-based report, Colonel Larry Wortzel postulated about China’s ability to “build a credible military force in the 21st century.” While the report may be more than 25 years old, some of its findings and estimates are sobering in light of the Bible’s descriptions of our future.
