The report seems to indicate that he was well received in his comments. I. too, have heard many former military (Korea era) talk about not sending in enough troops. They are not oppoed to the effort, they just believe a greater force would be better in the long run. When I read of the high numbers of people coming in from other countries, I often wonder if more troops would not help to seal the border areas to prevent the influx from continuing. However, I am not military, so I don't know how I can judge these things except by hoping and praying that those in charge are not making a mistake on any of these issues.

Meanwhile, U.S. troops are under severe strain. Troops are stationed in more than 100 countries, and their rapid tempo of deployments with little time off leaves them fatigued and in danger of making mistakes.

Why are we still in 100 countries?
