Sully,

Evenn though I'm on the outside looking in, I think there would be a lot of brakes applied by the SF community, because FID is one of its staples, right. Even if they may have swung to the direct action end of things of late, its still another ricebowl that would require some superb leadership to push through.

The Marine Corps is headed this way with its Foreign Military Training Unit (FMTU), but the teams are still standing up and finding their way (even the selection standards are morphing), which is fraught with uncertainty because FMTU is subordinate to MARSOC.

Two thumbs up though about a standard rotation of personnel between OCONUS deploys, stateside training, and (for lack of a better phrase) lengthy LE "ride-alongs", even if only as an observer.

This would take greater end-strength, so hopefully those personnel numbers we need can be grown IAW the models out there, and the standards can remain high.
