After spending a long time fighting multiple wars over in the Middle East we have decided that we should finally pull out. Rather than being right in the war helping with the fighting, we would like to just start supplying the Afghan Security Forces.The expected date to have most of our soldiers out of places like Iraq and Afghanistan is sometime in the year 2014. We believe and are hoping that the Afghan Security Forces that the military spent time training will be able to protect themselves.
