Fantastic Idea!

If you're a Marine that is.

Hey, let's play shuffle the troops:

The New York Times leads with word that the Marine Corps is proposing to have its troops be the main U.S. force in Afghanistan and leave the Army in charge of operations in Iraq. Those that support the idea say it would allow both the Army and Marines to operate more efficiently. There are currently about 25,000 Marines in Iraq and no major units in Afghanistan, where there are approximately 26,000 U.S. troops.

Like the proverbial deck chairs ....
