The funny thing is that the *real* world results were even more
optimistic than the expected results from the exercise... a fraction

of
the deaths and a shorter war.

We expected a war from March to way past December?


Recommend you go back to misunderstanding the wierd world of your

mythical
micro-nukes, Jack--this subject is obviously beyond your comprehension
level.


Then we did expect a war to last from onset to at least nine months?
It is still going on you know.


Intelligent individuals with half a clue realized that during the
stabilization/support/reconstruction phase there would be continued
violence. It did not surprise the military--that you were apparently caught
flat-footed implies something a bit different.
