Yes, poorly trained. As in, "Oh no, my weapon jammed. It's broken, send it off to the techs!"
And I'm sorry, wusses? We were one of the first countries to join you in Afghanistan.
And horray for ignorance! "The more people you have, the more FF you have?" No, not really. It's a simple thing to LOOK WHERE YOU ARE SHOOTING. If they are wearing your uniform, you do not shoot them! If you are in a jetfighter at twenty-thousand feet, and see tiny muzzleflashes, you do not assume that you're being fired at, and dive-bomb people without permission!
U.S. Troops need to get their goddamn fingers off their triggers, and aim at enemies, not friendlies. I'll never do another peacekeeping mission with U.S. troops. I fear for my life.
I'm at work right now, actually. I'm helping to teach a class on Tactical Communications.
