Wow, you jump onto the thread just to make a personal attack, and another strange one at that.
We know what the mission is because it is reported, where am I “misrepresenting your personal knowledge of what the mission is”?
The 101st will supply 700 soldiers to what will be 3 to 4 thousand, they are half of the first 1400, (the other 700 being mostly engineers).
“About 300 of the troops from the 101st Airborne will come from the division headquarters, and they will serve as the Joint Force Command for the mission.”
“A 101st Airborne press release issued Tuesday evening stated the 101st Airborne Division (Air Assault) Headquarters, Fort Campbell, will deploy as the Joint Force Command for Operation United Assistance in Monrovia, Liberia.
“Operation United Assistance is a critical mission,” said Maj. Gen. Gary J. Volesky, commander of the 101st Airborne Division (Air Assault). “We will coordinate all of the Department of Defense resources in Liberia to support USAID and the government of Liberia to contain the Ebola virus and ultimately save lives.”
No, we do not know what the mission is.
Various administration hacks have posed differing opinions, and have clearly stated that the troops will be caring for infected individuals.
The boilerplate that the Pentagon issues has been known to be bovine excrement for the entire time that Obingo has been in office.
Why did you jump in the thread? (we know)
