Post; update


I dont know how to link, but it's the 2nd item on a Google search, by an academic researcher.

So I was watching This Week, a Sunday news show with Geoge Stephanopolis, at the end the show the names/rank of our fallen brothers are shown in silence. There were saddly 36 U.S. dead last week, and not a company grade or field grade officer among them. The enemy seems quite adept at finding platoon Sgts, as SSG's gave their lives way out of proportion to their numbers. One week means very little, but when you keep noticing an aberrant sequence, it never hurts to focus a bit on the question.
