I wish I could delete all of my remarks early in the thread, most of all the word "substandard."

I was trying to compare their level of combat training to that of the combat arms units. Sending undefended troops into an area crawling with stay-behind enemy formations is criminal, when those troops are given less than 100 rounds of rifle practice ammunition per year. My anger is to the PC generals who have put them into the position to be caprured.

So how does this work? Do we have any idea where they are at? Will we try to go get them?

Travis, we're all so stressed right now. You've made really valuable contributions to this forum, you won't be judged by one bad day.

I'm just so filled with absolute rage lately - I'm sorry. I wish it was me over there, and instead it will be my daughter. I wish it was me instead of them.

But why would they do this? I'm asking a real question here, not trying to be argumentative. It boggles the mind.
