When the 2 Div 1st and 3rd brigades (currently in Sth Korea) go 
through Iraq ALL of the US Army's combat brigades will have 
served in either Afgahistan or Iraq. Some of 3 Arm Div are 
readying for their 3rd rotation. This war will rip the heart out 
the US Army and it will take a generation to repair (an army 
generation, 10 years). The loss of senior NCO and junior officers 
will be a serious blow.
