| Thank you guys. Our local battalion ( this is a garrison town) returned recently from a 6 month tour. They returned without 11 dead and many injured. As they marched past they looked like kids, and most of them had hoped for Afghanistan instead of Iraq so that they could get into battle rather than being used to police areas of Iraq. After all, they joined the forces to fight.
