<You didn't hear about it because it wasn't in the original Bush/Rumsfeld plan.
We could just have easily not heard about it because nothing was above the brigade level. Did you hear about the 173rd airborne until they landed? No? OK then.
The 4th ID is an infantry division.
I know Buck, thats me on the right. Things have changed since you've been here last. FYI thats what I.D. stands for.
The problem is we don't have enough armor on the ground. That's why the additional armor deployments now, and that was the miscalculation by Bush and team.
Refer to my earlier post, it takes time AND space to stage this many people, you can't do it all at once. It has to come in stages.
