The soldiers were going through training at
the first jungle school the Army has established in decades. The course
is part of a program to train soldiers for exercises and potential
combat on terrain that looks more like islands and nations in the
Pacific than arid Afghanistan and the deserts of the Middle East.
Brig. Gen. Stephen Michael, deputy commander
of the 25th Infantry Division, said the Army set up the school as its
footprint was shrinking in Iraq and Afghanistan after more than a decade
of war in those countries.

Not to mention the child protective services that are already cut to uselessness...
