My only question is, have we really acheived a victory in Afghanistan? We've certainly put a dent in the terrorist networks, but it's likely that Bin Laden is still alive and he and his group were certainly the main catalyst for that campaign.
That's not to argue that we aren't much better at special operations than we were during Vietnam. We learned a lot from our mistakes there without a doubt.
