So where are they going to get all the soldiers they need? I admit I haven't been keeping score in detail, but it seems that they're already extending tours of duty for guard units and cutting back on rotation for the regular units already there. Assuming we're still there this time next year, isn't there going to be a real personnel shortage? (And I'm assuming that new enlistees in both the regular and reserves are down. But maybe I'm wrong about that.)
