Troops officially came home from Iraq on Dec. 31, 2011, but they were
coming back in a steady stream since 2010, and they were bringing their
equipment with them.
The website Public Intelligence
diagrams the stark increase in military dollars transferred to our
federal, state and local law enforcement agencies from 2010.
The
amount in Fiscal Year (FY) 2010 came to about $223 million, then in
2011, with withdrawal from Iraq in the air, that amount more than
doubled to $498 million.
