Michael Yon has forwarded two recent letters from General Petraeus about his assumption of command in Afghanistan today, July 4, 2010. I do not expect these letters to surface in mainstream media for weeks, if ever.
Here is Michael's email:
Happy
July 4th!
As you know, we have a war on. Please take a few
minutes to read these two important letters that just came from General
David Petraeus in Afghanistan.
Having observed General Petraeus
in action over the past five years, General Petraeus has my full
confidence and support.

Very Respectfully,
