Subject: RE: BS: US combat troops left Iraq
No...there are 50,000 non-combat troops still there.... and despite the 'news', there are still several thousand more to go in the next two weeks. This BIG event was "The last combat brigade" leaving...big trucks and weapons. It was symbolic, but a bit more to do.
