"And, when the Marines are cut off, as they were in Liberia, the Army will send some Special Forces to rescue them."

What are you talking about? We've had three NEOs conducted in Liberia. None of them involved special forces rescuing Marines cut off in Liberia. If you want to write a fictional novel about it, go for it. If you want to stick to truth, post the facts. Here they are:
