Ooh, I haven't heard those numbers. Fox earlier had an ex-Gen on and he said we'd have close to 50K vs RG's 30K around BAG, but we have better equipment and can hit them from farther away.

Said we'd quickly take out their tanks one at a time, then move in to keep what's left from moving back into BAG.

maybe this # of troops being put out in media is dis-info? I find it hard to believe that our intelegence wouldn't dictate that we need a little more muscle than that. Of course we do have air superiority.

I wouldn't be surprised to learn that the true number was closer to half of that.

a division is NOT 100,000 men, perhaps 10,000
