One of my Captains pointed out something interesting today.
He noted that we are fighting tooth and nail, investing time, effort, and money, to get the Iraqi Army back to the status of where it was in 1991, where it took us 100 hours to absolutely destroy it.
Things like the mortar shoot are small victories in the long road to self-sufficiency. So is the capture of a particularly bad guy we have been tracking for a while but is now in the IA Brigade internment facility; we'll be speaking with him later...
Sometimes I wonder, though, if they think we are actually leaving. The gravy train is ending soon, whether they believe it or not.
Hope you are well. Take care-
Ron
