CIA's plan to retrench in Afghanistan worries US military

WASHINGTON: CIA's plan to retrench in Afghanistan worries US military | MCT National News | McClatchy DC:

"Pentagon officials warn that the CIA drawdown after 12 years of war is coming just as insurgent attacks are normally at their peak. As a result, the CIA withdrawal has strained relations between the agency and military commanders in Kabul, the officials said.
"They are beginning their own retrograde and they kind of sprung it on the military, which is raising concern," a senior military official, using the military term for retreat, said on condition of anonymity because he was not authorized to discuss classified CIA plans."
