Commander, I cannot stress how critical it is to keep our losses down and still
achieve our objectives. You've failed in both counts, during your combat
operations at Dak To. Public sentiment towards the war is already low, and your
defeat only adds fuel to the anti-war movement back home. We cannot afford anymore
such losses. You will return to stateside and begin new command in a non-combative
army unit. Report to duty at Kalamazoo supply depot, commander. Now get out of my
office!
