This morning AEI scholar Frederick W. Kagan and former acting Army chief of staff General Jack Keane released the updated and final version of phase one of "Choosing Victory: A Plan for Success in Iraq." The study calls for a large and sustained surge of U.S. forces to secure and protect critical areas of Baghdad. Kagan directed the report in consultation with military and regional experts, including General Keane, former Afghanistan coalition commander Lieutenant General David Barno, and other officers involved with the successful operations of the Third Armored Cavalry Regiment in Tal Afar. An interim version of the report was released on December 14, 2006.
