23 U.S. servicemembers killed in Iraq this week...

How many of the 23 were killed by small arms fire? And what does this change in enemy tactics signify?

My friend has been back a few months from his second tour and is now undergoing counseling. Not a "kid" by any means, he is 50 years old. If he accepts Lt. Col. they want him to go to Afghanistan for a year.

I only wish him the best. PTSD is a serious problem many who have gone to war suffer from. Sadly, it is so pervasive and expensive a disorder to address, it is one of the most ignored afflictions by the V.A.

They just don't want to hear about it, and the standard of proof for it is incredibly difficult to meet. Sadly, the underfunded V.A. will have what budget they do have gutted unmercifully once these contrived wars are over.

I got allot out of the Army. I am still affected by a sense of pride and have feelings for it. I know as I saw a leg home on leave at Saturday Market in class As with his coat unbuttoned with no cover on and SSG McCarthy was beating on my head asking to be allowed to go do an on the spot correction. Naturally I didn't as it is no longer my purview to do so as a former NCO.

That surprised me. But I imagine I shouldn't of been. I love this country and fear my government. The electric butter knife and tab still mean enough to me I carry my coin in my wallet, and I want to be buried with it when I pass on. Go figure.
