    It seems that the rhetoric is starting to congeal around a figure of 20,000 additional troops for a short-term surge.

    Is that an appropriate number, assuming the real ratio of shooters to supporting MOS's?

    Is there a line in the sand that defines the limits to the surge? New metrics to define success in the surge?

    Should the surge be tied to extended deployments for the Marines already on deck?
