13. Oh, he has touched it.
Rumsfeld's Africa Command

One of Donald Rumsfeld's final acts as secretary of defense will be to put the finishing touches on an Africa Command for the U.S. military.

It will be the first post-World War II command covering the African continent, which is currently split between European Command, the Middle East's Central Command and the Pacific Command.

The creation of a new Africa Command to join the five other regional military commands is far short of a dream Rumsfeld expressed to his aides after Sept. 11, 2001, to develop an "America's Command" to handle homeland security, Canada and Mexico, and the strategically quiet Latin American region.
