Afghanistan Aussie Diggers

Regarding Afghanistan, Australian military history tells us that the Aussie Diggers have fought many a holding battle, only with hindsight can the value of the losses be gauged. The WWI Western Front, it took time and lives to learn. Again in WWII it took time.  Korea, Malaya Emergency and Vietnam, were holding battles that gave other countries time to prepare. Vietnam probably saved Thailand and again Malaya. Now with Afghanistan we are holding and hoping. What do the present generation of Aussie Diggers believe is right? If they want to retire from the battle, I will support them; if they want to stay in the battle I will support them.
