If we're pulling out of Iraq, and looking for an exit strategy for Afghanistan, why is it important that the military continue to be restructured to fight wars in Iraq and Afghanistan?

#2 ...why, do you foresee us fighting on the Chinese mainland for some reason? Other than that, what is the profile of viable potential conflicts which would require a different force structure?
