Q: And we've heard a lot of lip service to how it's the responsibility of the U.S. military and U.S. government to help the Afghan combat translators who have worked for the U.S. government over the years and face threats from the Taliban. Yesterday, General Petraeus and Ambassador Ryan Crocker wrote a letter saying that U.S. responsibility to help those translators with visas to the United States. What are you planning to do? There's a backlog of about thirty four thousand people who have applied for these special immigrant visas. What are you planning to do to get those people out of harm's way to help Americans?

General McKenzie CENTCOM: So if directed, if directed to accomplish that task, that is a task that we could assist in accomplishing. The special immigrant visa program is probably the best route to make that happen. And that's really a better question for the Department of State than me. I would just tell you that from a Central Command perspective and the perspective of the U.S. military, if directed to do something like that, we could certainly do it.
