Soldiers from 101st Airborne Division took part in a course at Fort Campbell
Families are desperate to know how military can keep their loved ones safe
Ebola is a different threat to what troops are used to in Afghanistan and Iraq
There are already more than 350 US troops on the ground in West Africa
Number is set to grow and could even top current projection of nearly 4,000

Ms. Pham, the nurse at the Dallas hospital received all kinds of safety training. Remind me what happened.
More insanity from the idiot in the White House.
To him our military is cannon fodder.
Yes she did... That’s why I said please pray for the safety of our troops and their families.
If I didn’t know better I might think Obamabola’s hidden motive in sending our troops to an Obola-infested part of Africa is to facilitate its spread throughout the United States upon the troops’ return. But I know better.
We have no business getting involved in this. Shut our borders down now!
No US troops!!!!
Make that Ebola. Forgot it.
Next you’ll be claiming he’s a Muslim and has vowed to stand with his co-religionists if things go bad for them.
What is our exit strategy?
Post to me or FReep mail to be on/off the Bring Out Your Dead ping list.
The purpose of the Bring Out Your Dead ping list (formerly the Ebola ping list) is very early warning of emerging pandemics, as such it has a high false positive rate.
So far the false positive rate is 100%.
At some point we may well have a high mortality pandemic, and likely as not the Bring Out Your Dead threads will miss the beginning entirely.
*sigh* Such is life, and death...
IMO what he is doing here is a crime equal to anything done by any world leader short of genocide.
My first thought as well. The Dallas nurse had all the protective gear on and still got infected.
How is this supposed to work? What happens when our troops get infected? Or is that the plan?
Besides, the military just might oppose his domestic army when they “flip the switch”.
Let’s hope the military is better at safety “protocol” than the CDC is.
What if an individual soldier misses movement, (I think that's the term), and just doesn't go?
Less than honorable discharge?
Leavenworth?
I know it's improbable, but what if all of them just don't show up? Again, just axing a couple of questions. I don't see how this is in the job description or in the oath.
This is beyond stupid.
Now it makes sense. What a horrible scheme.
Same as Obama's other wars: Bury the dead, quarantine the rest (so that no one tells the real story).
Why is Present Obola doing this?
1) We don’t need to be there. Let the locals handle it.
2) We don’t need to put our troops in harm’s way for this.
3) It puts those of us stateside at risk when our troops inevitably come down with Ebola and are airlifted here for treatment.
But then again, stupid is as stupid does.
