Tapping that Defence Contractor Vein

摘要

With renewed plans of further withdrawing US troops from Afghanistan, leaving at least 8,400 forces in the country after January, a new report compiled by the US Congressional Research Service, which produces reports for members of US Congress, revealed that nearly 28,600 DoD private contractors are in the country, compared to 8,730 US troops. Such private contractors comprise 77% of the total DOD presence in Afghanistan.
