Can we say what we mean here? How long until we reintroduce major combat units--brigade-sized or greater? Who knows.

I hope never. But if we need spotters to successfully carry out strikes, so be it. We can't do nothing.

It is all about APOD/SPOD and forward positioning. Secure intertheater LOC and an ISB. If it is going to happen look for news of a combat brigade (with supporting CS/CSS elements/enablers) being deployed to Kuwait and placed there as a rapid reaction force. Also the movement of an Air Force wing (Jbird?) or a carrier strike group (Navytiger74?) being put in place to give fixed wing close air support.

That is the way we roll.
