Have any of you been to Iraq or Afghanistan? Have you seen firsthand what actually goes on over there? (And no, the TV, newspaper, internet etc. doesn't count) There is alot more than the media outlets will ever show, and alot of the troops that are/were over there are actually rebuilding the Iraqi infrastructure. I've seen the troops actually going to the schools to teach Iraqi children, helping the nationals get water purification stations and electrical systems up and running and rebuilding hospitals. We are also training the Iraqi and Afghani military to be more efficient in what they do and helping the police force to help maintain order. As much as you don't like it, there are people over there that are doing good and to disgrace our
soldiers who have paid the ultimate price is not cool at all. They are doing a job that I can guarantee that not alot of people would ever step up to the plate to do.
Hank, I am deeply saddened by your post. Please use a bit more discretion when posting.
