“The United States appears to be sending troops from several #Marine Expeditionary Units, the 82nd #Airborne, 101st Airborne, 75th #Rangers, 10th Mountain Division, and assorted #SpecialOperations into the fight in Iran.

Additionally, in one prominent gaffe, the White House hinted that it might consider reinstituting the #draft. This is almost unprecedented historically, with one grim but unsurprising exception.”
