I don't see the cessation of combat in Afghanistan any time soon.
My ideal situation would see a proportionate increase in combat troops from other NATO nations so that a better cycle of combat tours can be maintained so that no nation bears more time in the line of fire than any other (with the possible exception of the US forces which given their larger numbers would likely always have troops in combat just few numbers over all).
Germany, Spain, France, Turkey, the UK and the other members of NATO need to step up and share the load.
