As OMLT teams yes.

I met some Dutch soldiers when I was in Afghanistan with the 82nd Airborne Division. I don't think they were Marines though. Good bunch of guys, very professional.

@MoonLoaf

They have to be professional, we don't have a lot of them :P.

[Wadser]

is there even a point to ground troops because it seems like every engagement ends with air support cleaning up and ground troops evacuating.
