#1 Wonder if the advisors are there for training only or whether they'll include forward air controllers and their protectors.

As time is short , I would suspect that FST's will be employed , if not already in place/en route . The main issues with this rucus is the backward/forward motion on the 'battlefield' . Its very apparent that the 'rebels' couldnt run a bath even with close air support

FST = fire support team , upto 6 strong personel in normal conditions. Something the Royal Marines are quite good at .
