You think the 101st fails at combat?

No.

That is not what I said.

My comment was, that they were sent into at least the three events I mentioned, and it made no difference in the final outcome.

Those are facts -- not hype.

I'm pretty sure they are dedicated, well-trained humans for their purpose (war). But, so is the other side.

That's all.

Yes, the 101st does not decide the fate of America’s wars, no one Division does.

This normal rotation is just a normal NATO rotation, with different units at different times, the 101st has been going to Europe and to NATO for generations.
