U.S. Troop Size

Since we have so many troops in different places around the world it is becoming a problem whether or not we will withdraw troops from Iraq or have to increase our Army's size.

Since we were supposedly supposed to be withdrawing troops we have added 20,000 since June due to no Iraqi help. We have also increased the number of troops in Afganistan throughout the past couple of years.

Due to the shortage some National Guard or Reserve soldiers will need to help out in foreign countries which usually only happens once in five years.
