General, let me welcome you and say how proud all of us are of what you and the troops are doing. I'm sure I speak for all members of the official opposition when I say that. I look forward to an opportunity to visit with the troops as soon as that's possible.
What is your understanding of the relationship between the OEF and the ISAF forces in Kandahar, and what exactly will be the relationship between the ISAF troops and the American troops that we have been told will be supplemental to our efforts in Kandahar?
I'd like to know in particular whether the rules of engagement are the same, whether the general philosophy and approach of the two groups will be the same, and just how that coordination is going to be taking place.
