For decades we have had a rapic deployment force at Ft Bragg. They can get anywhere on earth in 18 hours. Libya would have taken half that time.
From U.S. bases with aircraft rescue planes in Sicily, such as Sigonella (see below), it is less than an hour to Benghazi. Help was available and likely would have saved lives. Obama and Hillary were AWOL. They are so inexperienced that they don’t even know what the job description for their positions is. Court martial standards should be applied to the commander in chief.
