#2 The future of a lot of military activities includes complementary support services supplied by contractors--including light infantry, for low intensity operations.

It saves vast amounts of money to use them instead of our first class military for lesser missions. This is how they did things in Europe for the better part of a thousand years.

#4 I can't complain about KBR. They did a pretty damn good job keeping things running. Generators, laundry service, Class-1, Catfish Air Shuttle, and seldom yapped about work being "out of scope." If they could fix it, they would and a temporary loan of equipment and tools was seldom an issue. Most were former soldiers, either US or UK. The bravest men in the world drove convoys btwn the FOBS for KBR. They were unarmed. If they so much as touched weapon they could be fired.
