Very good point. I only skimmed the document, haven't had a chance to sit down and read it yet. The line between REMF and front-line soldier is blurred, that's for sure. I'd bet that they look at the combat rated MOS's (11, 12, 13, 18, 19 series, plus some I'm forgetting), vs. all others. I'd like to see a breakdown by the whole force, not just one theater.
