“We should reevaluate the goals,” said Jennifer Kavanagh, senior fellow and director of military analysis for Defense Priorities, a Washington, D.C.-based foreign policy think tank. “There are certain types of units being deployed way too often. One possibility is that the Army is too small; the other is that the United States is trying to do too many things at once and need[s] to prioritize and downsize, and think about what activities are most vital to U.S. interests.”
