Only 5? We probably need at least 10 more divisions, not tot mention a few more MEFs.
10 extra divisions + MEFs? What the hell are you planning to do, invade Russia?
SteelWolf is right, we will have trouble finding the personnel to fill 5 more divisions plus support. Ten ain't gonna happen unless you draft them. I would oppose that at this stage.
"As part of the effort to relieve the strain on the force, the Army is developing plans to accelerate the creation of two new combat brigades, The Associated Press has learned."
Two brigades. Freaking brilliant.
Keeping in mind that a brigade may be composed of a Regiment or two. Something less than 3,450 troops or so. At the outside, not counting REMF's this is 7,000 combat troops. To train Hezbullah Shiites.
