He has cut the 101st Airborne Division from 4 Brigades to 3. Obie will not be happy until has has totally trashed out military, as he has our nation.

I think they are doing that to every division to save money and from what I hear the brigades that are left just have skeleton crews. They are doing the old National Guard trick of of pulling from 3 units to form one unit that can be deployed. So basicly a Division is really only a Brigade with a bunch of extra senior officers fighting over slots.

Which brigade got cut? When did that happen?

Fort Campbell's website for the 101st still shows 4 Brigades, plus Aviation.
