Let me know when he makes a VISIT TO A FUNERAL FOR A SOLDIER KILLED ON HIS ORDERS... Bush Makes Surprise Visit to Troops in Baghdad By Terence Hunt, AP White House Correspondent BAGHDAD, Iraq — President Bush made a surprise Thanksgiving visit to American troops in Baghdad Thursday, flying secretly to violence-scarred Iraq to thank U.S. forces for serving there. It was the first trip ever by an American president to Iraq -- a mission tense with concern about his safety. "You are defending the American people from danger and we are grateful," Bush told some 600 soldiers who were stunned and delighted by his appearance. The president's plane -- its lights darkened and windows closed to minimize chances of making it a target -- landed under a crescent moon at Baghdad International Airport. Bush flew in on the plane he most often uses, and White House officials went to extraordinary lengths to keep the trip a secret, fearing its disclosure would prompt terrorist attempts to kill him.
