Our grunts, NCOs and officers in the field are good, dedicated and fight hard and well. They have been tasked to do what a force triple its size should be doing and they have been the collective victim of abject stupidity emanating from the White House and SecDef inner circle.

There's no reason to do that and, even if there were, it cannot be accomplished, the genie is out of the bottle and the bottle is broken and shattered.
