I'm unpleasantly surprised that this is a big revelation for the command element mentioned in the article.
I am pleasantly surprised that they have found a way to get the Afghan security forces working with them to stay out that long (perhaps they are rotated halfway through the ten days ), because at about the 72-96 hour mark, I've observed effectiveness to plummet.
