Iraq did have chemical weapons, and a few have been used against US forces – fortunately the insurgents didn’t know how to use them properly.
I have been hearing a little about the recalls. They have been recalling personell for specific slots in which there was a shortage in iraq according to their mos. They are calling people back because they need those people to do the job they were trained for.
That leaves three possibilities.
A) the story is inaccurate about the young ladies mos.
B) The story is a made up lie.
C) There is a need for chemical specialists in Iraq.
Whereas I wouldn't put it past a reporter to screw up or lie to me, I just don't smell that here. Leaving a third and rather interesting option on the table.
I would choose B if the story was from CBS. Lacking that I would go with C.
