1 month into the Iran war, Donald Trump said it would be over "in about two weeks."
That was 182 days ago.
That's why we partnered with VoteVets to build a calendar of every single time Trump said the war would be ending. Go to AboutTwoWeeks.com and see for yourself.
![U.S. BASING AND DISPOSITION
USCENTCOM reported that it designed its force distribution for OEF to sustain combat
power while considering taking into account Iranian ballistic missiles, one-way unmanned
aircraft systems (OWUAS), and maritime threats.77 During OEF, USCENTCOM shifted
personnel, assets, and storage facilities as locations came under Iranian and proxy attacks.78
USCENTCOM said that it constantly evaluated the threat to base and force locations as
the threat level evolved throughout the campaign, and adjusted counter-UAS and other air
defense assets’ location, placement, and posture based on that assessment. USCENTCOM
convened decision boards to provide recommendations to the air defense commander for the
appropriate adjustments.79
The Office for the Undersecretary of War for Policy (OUSW[P]) said that partners in the
Middle East and Europe provided significant access, basing, and overflight permission to
execute OEF.80 U.S. Forces flew as many as 5,000 sorties in support of OEF from European
bases, according to the NATO Secretary-General.81
