non-combat medical and reconstruction efforts....no
opsec...trust me. Infact they (the afgan, regardless if they are
taliban or not) see medical troops like our
team, like angel fall from the sky. I tell you if anyone
even dare touch our medical troops there those men are going to pay
for it. Not even the taliban willing to risk it.
this discussion is not going to go anywhere since the mod's
already indicated where he stands ...
but I think that "they" see "medical troops like our team like
angel fall from the sky" (sic), is really a bit too much of
hyperbole
if that's the case, our chaps needn't have bothered with side
arms and assault weapons would they ? ...
and the "they" in my mind, doesn't just include the
talibans, or even just the afghans ... alone ... there are plenty
of elements in our region who doesn't like us being in Iraq and
afghanistan too ....
people may think I'm a being anal over what seems to be a non
issue, but I do not think we should be so complacent over something
so potentially sensitive like deployments to afghanistan ....
