I believe that the original post has already happened but there is a new news article which has been put out today that is current.

Considering reserve regiments, including my own, are going to work up for A-stan... I think this article isnt all correct. They just must be talking about the closing of camp Julien.

Don't forget those famous words: " You won't know until you are actually getting off the plane in country."
The statement is only current as of the time it was said. Two hours from now a decision may be made to counter it. Who knows? When you get on the plane and then disembark on Tour, is when you know that you are really going to be there, and then the length of your stay is not definite either. Everything in the Military is "Subject to Change".

OK, some facts as I can't take it anymore.
1. The original article deals with the replacement of the 3 PPCLI Battle Group with a Romanian mountain battalion in August 2002. It is history and should never have been posted here as "fact".
2. There has been no official announcement regarding the early repatriation of personnel from Afghanistan. It could well happen - that's the nature of operations, especially on a rapidly evolving mission such as the one we have in theatre now.
3. TF 01-06 is still a "go" for February. The Deputy PM was quoted in the news - from Kandahar - as saying we're likely to remain in Afghanistan for "years" and the Defence Minister has been talking of the possibility of casualties. Is that enough of a hint?

And where did you get your info linking the two? This is how rumours get started.
Col Noonan is the current Comd TFK and is referring to soldiers already in theatre, as others have pointed out. There are people moving between Kabul and Kandahar and some of those may not (stressing MAY) get a full tour.
If there's a change, wait for the chain of command to announce it. The press gets it wrong in 90% of cases like these.
