Not all of those troops are infantry/artillery though. Some are support for infantry/arty, like the commo guys.
They're also maintanence, supply, PAC, chaplains, medics, cooks, etc.....

I agree we need more infantry there....

The 4th is about to arrive. That will be a nice addition.

With the arrival of the 1ID and 4ID in theater we will have more than enough combat power.

The only thing that's kept the Iraqi's active over the past 4 days is the sandstorm, which grounded most of our combat aviation and concealed much of their movement.

Clearing weather will make it much harder for the Iraqis to avoid destruction.
