American Paratroopers Conduct Training Exercises for Possible Mission in Syria

Preparing for situation where terrorists could be close to acquiring chemical weapons

(CBS News) FORT BRAGG, N.C. -- On Thursday, Secretary of State John Kerry met with Syrians who've fled the two-year-old civil war. He visited a sprawling refugee camp in Jordan that holds 115,000 refugees. Some pleaded with Kerry for U.S. military intervention in the war between rebels and the dictatorship of Bashar Assad.
