I typically don't pay attention when the Pres. speaks, but my wife told me that tonight he is withdrawing 33k of our people from Afghanistan during the next year!

I do realize that they all may not come home right away, but I think this is great news!!!

Hopefully their reassignments will keep them out of harms way so they can come home!!!!!

Glad to here of them comming home!
But somewhat feal sorry for them.... where are they going to work at?? But maybe the influx on the physical USA population will create some jobs in the long run.
