Unfortunately, it's this exact force deployment process that has led to high desertion/AWOL rates, and the lack of true combat power. At any given time in month, a third of my TF's Plt (+) of Shewanis (pure Shi'a) wanted to be on leave (for 10 days). It was next to impossible to muster enough forces.I would shift Iraqi units to the bordwe of Anbar and Syria (the Shia ones), I would send the Kurdish unit to the southern border opposite the Iraninan border.
