Quote HistoryQuoted:
Great, now we can pay to rebuild bases that we abandoned earlier in the administration. Wonder which donor will get the contracts... It's going to take forever to scrub the stink out. I helped transfer a FOB to the GOI, most of what we left was once expensive junk and a limited maintenance plan to get them by for a couple months. That giant sucking sound is the billions of taxpayer dollars and lives being flushed down the drain. |

I'm at a complete loss why they need a division headquarters and staff controlling this, much less being in country. Won't it be SF training the locals? Maybe UAV assets, HUMINT teams, and other MI? So why does that require an infantry/armor division headquarters?

Yes because it sounds like an advance party for a much larger future commitment like a BCT. Staff Weenies do staff jobs like set up log trains and billeting not train Iraqis. |

The only reason why you would need a division headquarters in Iraq is if you need an element capable of commanding, controlling and coordinating the actions of 2 or more brigade combat teams. Therefore we should assume regular army units will soon follow. You wouldn't need a regular army division headquarters to coordinate the activities of some special ops units there advising and acting as JTACs.
