Not a scout-just wear the funny hat (Iraq was my "spur ride"). I wouldn't go back to a non-combat unit though, I enjoy being the doc for combat troopies.

You should see my funny hat. Now, how many combat brigades do we have, and how many are in combat?
Houston, we have a problem....

I have no idea what we need for numbers but I do know that repeated deployments are taking their toll on our troops. Heck, it's taking a toll on my own family.
After talking to our troops coming and going for the past four years the one thing everyone agrees on is that we need a larger army.
Sadly we voted in Democrats who will only use fatigue as an excuse to cut and run. They will make us appear weak and then freak out and try to bring back the draft once we are attacked again.
