I heard early on that Special Ops had blown bridges in the west on roads coming from Jordan. That didn't make sense at the time, but this could be the reason.

I've been waiting for some clever actions from Rumsfeld, etc. Right now, it's not looking like a brilliant plan.
The 3rd ID is holding the IRG in place and the MEF is coming up from the SE. We haven't heard much of anything from out west. We took the airfield(s) out there early on. Maybe we're flying in tanks and armor. There were also reports of the 4th ID's equipment, originally intended for Turkey, being offloaded in Saudi and being trucked up to the border with Iraq (junction of SA, Jordan, and Iraq).
I'd love for another US division to pop up out of nowhere but I doubt it will happen.
