[A Simple Soldier]

You have asked an MSM-worthy question. Or maybe Article-15 worthy, not sure.

The realities of strategic and intratheater lift and the assorted other factors that are in play (a lot more than number of aircraft available) make the requirement perplexing and basically nothing more than a limiting factor instead of a true operational enhancement. We have never had a crisis situation that required a mounted brigade be on the ground in less than 10 days.

Definately inquiry worthy, but all the "Grand inquisitors' in the uniform nowadays are Shinseki peers.
And even if an inquiry of fact finding were made, nothing would come of it.
This 'Future Force' idea is too imbedded, like a Texas cattle tick or an Oklahoma scorpion.
