Al, those are very good points, but I made it clear he was a healthy person. He wasn't in the war at all.

He worked in the USA. He retired before the war. He was a maintenance worker.


I didn't read that part...but it does not matter. We've lost plenty of support folks in iraq. Look, there is a simple solution. Eliminate the volunteer army and go back to a draft. Then the government won't have to entice folks to join and stay in the military. Heck, the pay sure sucks.

Ask yourself if you would join the army at any time in history for starting pay of $12K/year?
