Combat forces are scheduled to be out by Aug. 31 this year. Depending on the violence and relative stability, that date could be delayed. But unless there has been recent news that I’ve missed, that agreement, at the insistence of the Iraqi government, is still in place. 50,000 noncombat troops will remain. Most, if not all of withdrawn troops are expected to be redeployed in Afghanistan.
