Troops taken literally

Seems "troops" means only Army, and maybe Marines. At least, that's what Spouting Horn (Terrorism is a tactic. Our battle should be waged against the Shariah and Jihad.) says:

Not to rag on the Air Force...but I know a young kid in the Air Force, and I saw him one morning with several of his Air Force buddies...not one of them could have been over 120 lbs soaking wet.

Now, on the other hand, the Marines I come across...any one of them could snap in half a handful of the Air Force guys with one hand.

Now, it's just a feeling but I think most Air Force people could kick Spouting Horn's spouting ass. I am also amused by the idea that someone who flies a plane for a living must also be all buff.
