There is a cure for it.
Has anyone seen any of the 3,000 troops with hazmats on?
I haven't.

There is no cure for ebola. All they can do is treat the symptoms. They are working on a vaccination but it is still in the experimental stage.

The problem with sending all of these soldiers to west Africa is that the Army will undoubtedly hire local contractors to provide some goods and services to the Soldiers and that is where the biggest risk of exposure will come into play.

I also worry about people being infected with ebola deciding to expose Soldiers by seeking treatment at the construction sites. If I were a Liberian who had ebola, I would rather take a shot at a free trip to the U.S. for treatment instead of placing my bets on a local hospital.

Like it or not, if our Commander-in-Chief had any respect for the U.S. military, our troops would not be in danger of being exposed to ebola - at least not until an effective vaccination had been developed.
