And yes, it does matter who it was written by. McRaven was the [URL='https://www.navy.mil/navydata/bios/navybio_ret.asp?bioID=401']former commander of JSOC (Joint Special Operations Command)[/URL] ...with his experience, he appreciates the working relationship US Special Forces had forged the SDF over the last four years - a relationship that was built on mutual respect and trust. [I][URL='https://www.theatlantic.com/politics/archive/2019/10/us-intelligence-disaster-looming-syria/600226/']In Syria, elite U.S. troops among the 1,000 American personnel in the country worked closely with Kurdish counterterrorism units while regular Kurdish fighters carried out most of the ground operations against ISIS. The U.S. partnership with the Kurds grew as America armed and trained them and later merged them with Arab groups under an umbrella militia called the Syrian Democratic Forces. The SDF spearheaded the fight against ISIS in Syria, rolling back its most important strongholds.
