Generally try not to get into personal stuff here but re Afghanistan, solidarity for those who spent much longer there esp when Iraq was 'the big war' in the AO that matters & the Afghanistan theatre was .... not.
If this is your war's campaign plan, as conceived by your 'best and brightest' in command, then it was always a fool's errand - and the lions were led not by donkeys but by McKinsey rejects. Two decades of "Omnicluster". 
"One of the crucial pillars of the liberal international order is fighting a hopeless war for two decades while allied to pederastic warlords & a Kabul officialdom so corrupt that the Taliban are considered the preferred government. Whither, indeed?"
