Rummy's New War - The secretary of defense invades the Army. By Fred Kaplan

A relative of the family (retired Colonel and tank commander) told Streak about this a few weeks ago--that Rumsfeld wanted a light army and light tanks and that he would take the successes of the last two "wars" to justify his point of view. Streak wonders if Iraq or Afganistan really qualify? Should we frame our entire military approach on those "wars?"
